 Bladder or leather pads for vintage clarinets?
Author: Bill

Even the best techs who (are willing to) work on vintage instruments are, these days, using leather pads. They seat better on old tone holes, etc.

What are others opinions on using leather pads for instruments designed for bladder pads ... clarinets presumably tuned and voiced for bladder pads?

An aside: how long (forever?) did Boosey & Hawkes use leather pads on their 1010s?
