Re: Mouthpiece/barrel quantitative tuning effects?

I can add a bit of information about Yamaha for the readers. A USA background.

As a Yamaha Artist I know that the USA is the last country to receive the latest Yamaha NEW clarinets. Yamaha spends a lot of time researching and field testing new horns. Then adjusting them and fine tuning them. Some models never make it to the USA.

I really like Yamaha's Research and Development program. Because of this when players go out and buy a new CSVR pro clarinet or any of the other pro lines the player doesn't have to test 15 as they do with Buffet and other companies.

You simply test one or two Yamaha's and play the concert that night. Yes they are that great. No leaking pads, no out of tune notes, the horns work. It's that simple.

So if you run into a weird or unusual Yamaha name you haven't heard of yet, chances are it has not been released in the USA yet. It may still have issues with it such as above.

Usually at the winter NAMM Convention Yamaha releases its latest updated or new clarinet. Until then things are kept pretty quiet.

So it might be worth it to avoid clarinets with strange names.
