"Speaking of mouthpices causing tarnish, new Buffets come with a warning that says some hard rubber mouthpieces can cause discoloration in the keys."

This is why Buffet doesn't ship their clarinets with rubber mouthpieces.

I had to deal with a batch of E-11 Eb clarinets that had been warehoused for a long time. They DID have rubber mouthpieces, and it was really interesting to open the case and see the tarnish pattern on the keys. Quite a vivid illustration, and I wish I'd taken a photo at the time.
