Re: Difference between different Bass Clarinet brands

I had a similar thing happen on a soprano clarinet. Between Bb and G sounded stuffy, like the fingers of my right hand weren't off the holes enough.

It turned out there was a set screw that had vibrated and was preventing the F/C key (and pad) on the right side of the horn from opening completely. The tech adjusted the screw, used a bit of thread locker to hold it, and the clarinet sounded great again.

I suggest you let a tech check it over.
