Can any one let me know what a set of 17 pads would consist of for a B & H 2-20?
Need size and quantity.
Thank you
Marcel

Is that skin or leather pads?

Here's a list for leather (and cork) pads for a B&H 1010 which should apply to most B&H Bb clarinets (measurements taken from the inside diameter of the pad cups):

8.5mm x 1 (LH1 ring key)
9mm x 4 (Speaker key, throat G# key, LH2 ring key, C#/G# key)
10mm x 6 (trills and side keys, throat A key, cross Eb/Bb key)
10.5mm x 1 (RH rings - check the diameter first as it could be 11.5mm on a 1010)
11.5mm x 2 (cross B/F# key and Acton vent)
15mm x 1 (Ab/Eb key)
16.5mm x 3 (F/C, F#/C# and E/B keys)

For skin pads, add 1mm to the diameter. Order a few more of each size just to play it safe.
