Caroline: I'm not sure what you meant by "what area does this tech work in?". If you mean "area of expertise", I don't know actually know if the tech was a clarinet specialist or general woodwind tech or whatever as I don't know the techs at this shop (I've only been there a couple of times before and this was the first time I'd actually met any of the techs). As for "geographic area", I'll go as specific as "New Jersey". I'd not like to potentially cause trouble in the event there was some kind of misunderstanding.

Having said that, it occurred to me that I could test it by trying one of my own mouthpieces (a Gale Hollywood) in the clarinet (the B&H isn't mine- I brought it in to get an estimate on repair on someone's behalf). It was a a little tight but it fit without any real effort to put it on. That same mouthpiece is "just right" in my Yamaha YCL34. However, my Vandoren CL4 mouthpiece is a "tight-ish+" fit in my YCL34 (but that was when the CL4 was new).
