 RE: I hate my R13 A

My R13 A (1966 vintage) was greatly improved with the use of a Moeneg barrel that I aquired from a fellow clarinetist. It made tuning in the upper register much less of a problem and helped focus the notes above G for more projection without necessarily overblowing.

I would also suggest that you spend entire practice sessions on your A clarinet exclusivly. Practicing your normal Bb routine (and music) on your A will help you learn the extra effort it takes to play an A clarinet. In fact, as you gain experiance with your R13A, you may come to prefer playing it over your "easy and freeblowing" Bb.
