Thanks for the comprehensive answers, both of you! Yes, I am speaking of low pitch Boehm G-clarinet, and I am a little confused why they don't make them in a wider scale of manifacturing, as in other tones. I guess it is about the 'search-offer' relationship, but it is a million-dollar question like the 'hen-egg' one. If they start to make them on a wider scale maybe people will be more interested to buy. It is also a no-less-dollar-question why G-clarinets are primarily (not to say only) connected with Turkish, Greek, or whatever else of this part of the world music.
I think I am close to make one for me, since I already craft other woodwinds, also clarinet barrels and bells (my model, for I think factory bells lack and lag in smth., but this will I expose in another chapter). So why not next step be clarinet making. Not uncalled for, since I have several aspects, that I don't approve in the presence of the instrument. Cheers!
