Hi Matthew,
Thanks for posting your details. I hope you get a ton of work from that.
Another thing I have noticed - although serious, experienced, musicians have had their playing curtailed during the lockdown, I think there are a lot of shy adult starters lurking at home playing music by themselves. My husband, for example, has bought a euphonium during lockdown, and is working hard alone, learning how to operate it. I bet there are a load of shy clarinet players quietly struggling alone out there who are going to need your help.
Thinking about my own experience as an adult starter, I think many of these people probably have no idea that their problems are down to the instrument rather than their own inexperience, or that a clarinet tech is even a thing that exists. When I started playing, self-taught, I had no idea that clarinet reeds needed to be periodically replaced. I bet those people would be very glad to be introduced to you online.
I'm in the UK so can't send fixing work your way but I'm in the market for an A horn, if you see one suitable, and were willing to be in intermediary for me.
I have a new Bb Yamaha Custom CX, and would like to buy the matching A horn in as-new condition sometime, if one could be found at a good price. I'm in no rush at all. Any time in the next three years would be great.
Good luck there with getting business. Keep telling people that you are available for work, and I hope a load of it comes your way soon.
