 Re: How Hard Is It To Learn How To Overhaul Your Own Bb Clarinet?

I'm in the middle of my first overhaul. I've oiled the instrument. I've cleaned the keys and tone holes, re-corked the keywork, and am about to start on the padding portion. I've affixed my own pads in the past. But working every new pad on will certainly be an adventure. Thankfully no keys need swedgeing.

As of yet, nothing as seemed that daunting. I've enjoyed working on it and found the whole experience relaxing.

My only issue is that I have come across a couple tone holes that are chipped along that ridge upon which they seal. Its nothing too big, but may prove a problem if the Valentino pads don't want to give just that tiny bit to allow a clean seal.

This is my highschool clarinet by the way. A Normandy 4. He served me well. :')
