Re: 1010 clarinet very sharp

Is the sharpness confined to just the throat notes or is it sharp all through the range? I recently sold a 1010 that tuned very well throughout the range, but some years ago I had one that was sharp and defied my efforts to get it in tune without pulling to the point of instability. I eventually made a barrel specific to the instrument which resolved the problem. The instrument wasn't always sharp, that started following a repad. (Cork on the upper joint, brown leather on the lower joint). I thought about repadding it again but decided that selling it was a better option.
