Hi, I'm looking for a 9.5 mm diameter .130" thickness cork pad for the upper-joint of my clarinet. I tried Ferree's and they only carry .110" thickness, and that will not work for my instrument.
How well do these Valentino cork pads work? I called them and they said that it is harder than the other pads like the greenbacks and it is synthetic and not made of real cork.
How well do these pads seal to prevent leakage, retain the seating around the tonehole edges, and most importantly, how do these pads sound compared to real cork pads or leather or double skin pads.
Please if you have experience with them let me know. Thanks.
