Re: Liquid accumulation under pads

I have a similar problem, but only with one of the clarinets that I own. It's a Pustophon and is by a wide margin my favourite clarinet. The A, A# and C# pads tend to burble due to water build-up after playing for a while. Last night I replaced these pads as they were showing signs of deterioration. I don't get the problem with any of my other instruments. There's nothing that I can see about the Pustophon that is any different from other clarinets in this region. I deal with it by swabbing and blotting. Another mystery.
