Re: Guess The Barrel Length ...

:-) You can contact me by email on where to send my prize, Chris.

When you described the set up and playing style, I figured the fellow would probably be able to make it work. If the barrel is short enough to bring his flattest notes up to pitch, his ability to lip everything else down, and cover it all with a wide vibrato will likely keep him happy. I played in a big band a long time ago with a lead alto player who had an impossibly shortened barrel on his clarinet. He made it work.

Always enjoy seeing your work, Chris, and hearing the stories that go along.

John
