Hi
That bass clarinet neck thread got pretty long so I thougt I'll let it fade and open a new one eventhough it's a very related subject.
I assumed everything was fine with my register mechanism on my Buffet bass because it was just repaired a month ago, and it felt ok until today. Suddenly in the middle of class today it stopped working.
What happens is the upper register (the one conntected to the neck) doesn't open fast enough, or even opens at all. It's very unstable, sometimes will work and sometiems won't.
I think some of the people on the board are repair instruments (for example I think Chris P. is). Is anyone familiar with the newer Buffet bass clarinets?
The reason I ask is I don't trust 100% percent on any clarinet repairman in my country (the only trustworthy one went back to Bulgaria). But it looks like I will have to go to one of them anyway. If I post pictures and explain the problem does anyone think they can maybe understand what the problem is or at least what it might be?
I'll feel much better knowing a little in advance about it so they can't just do whatever they want.
Thanks very much.
