Re: Clarion B

The cause is almost certainly that the crow's-foot attached to the bottom of the right-hand low F key is out of adjustment and does not completely close the low F key when you press the E/B key.

To test this, play third-line B with your right little finger pressing the F/C key. The B will almost certainly be fine. Raise and lower your right little finger, which will bring the B out of focus and then back in.

The cure is to bend the crow's-foot slightly to make the F/C pad seal exactly along with the E/B pad. Any repair tech can do this in a few seconds and probably with no charge.
