I do use the long Bb a lot, but it does need a certain amount of embouchure control for it not to fly up to a high G when playing at ff.

Otherwise I use the forked Bb (xox|ooo) where I can as I have that mechanism fitted on most of my clarinets (even on my plastic Yamaha, but unfortunately not on my old R13 Eb clarinet), or the side Bb - I've blocked up the cross key (sliver) as it gets in the way of my fat fingers and I have never used it or found a use for it.

I see in the CASS magazine that Artie Shaw's 'Gramercy 5' Buffet has had this key taken off and the holes filled in.

If it's good enough for Artie Shaw...
