 Opperman Barrels
Author: Ken Shaw

A couple of days ago, I said that Kalmen Opperman might be willing to make a barrel if you called him and could convince him you were serious.

He has now told me that this is not so. He is semi-retired and makes them only for his students and former students. I'm sorry to have given incorrect information. Please do not call him.

There are several alternatives. I think that Guy Chadash will match a barrel to your clarinet and mouthpiece, and Greg Smith offers his mouthpieces with Chadash barrels selected to work well with them. James Pyne also makes barrels that are designed to work with his mouthpieces, as does Clark Fobes.

Best regards.
