 Re: Hole in the bell

The Fobes Eb clarinet extension essentially does that "hole in the bell" thing and allow for great intonation throughout the range, although more noticeable in the E/F and B/C. When my local tech was playing my horn he commented that "why hasn't someone done this for Bb clarinet?". Good question! Of course the Tosca Bb does have the alternate C key that fixes that note.

Buffet's alto and bass clarinets have the hole on the bell and this really helps the long B sound and intonation.
