Re: How many Leblanc Opus players among us?

Thanks Dex,
My suspicion (not based on fact) is that the exit bore diameter of the Opus and Concerto were the same but the actual bore 'may have varied.'
My understanding is that the register tube length changed I believe on the A clarinet. To a very long tube, and later reverted back to a shorter tube. I recently purchased a register tube from Morrie, it turned out unnecessarily.
There are clearly people who like one or the other, not based on having a left Eb key.

The Symphony Vii was again meant to be cut from the same cloth except in Honduran rosewood. It is currently my favorite choice out of the lot. It is very smooth and incredibly quick in response. I have done a bit of tuning work to it as I believe it was 'less than ideal'. Slightly softer and rounder tone.

I am in the process of having a basset joint made by Stephen Fox for my Bb Opus. He did not have any great concerns about using a Wooden Vito France VSP lower joint and felt there would, if required by minimal alteration to the lower joint bore to make it work.

It would be great if someone had a bore measuring tool that would cope with the entire joint. Mine only does about 10cm.

Obviously Morrie would know for sure???

Thanks Cheers Glen
