 Re: Tenon Length and Barrel Socket Depth

I don't believe the gap in itself is a bad thing. When I've filled the existing gap that I have gotten when tuned, it appears that the pitch goes up slightly. So if anything the gap itself brings the pitch down ......a little more.


I've also heard (from Rossi and Gerold) that the higher up the horn the gap is, the less it has a negative effect. This is why German clarinets and Rossis have a longer top joint and shorter barrel.



But I think as long as you are able to bring your horn down to pitch without throwing the the relative pitch amongst notes of the horn off, it shouldn't matter how much you pull out or how little you pull out.
