Re: Backun Barrels for Eb Clarinet

Good news for both Ed & Krystal:

I play Eb Clarinet at WICKED in NYC every night (350 times a year), along with a bunch of other horns, and at a bunch of different venues.

Morrie Backun sent me a few of his Eb barrels to try a few years ago, and I haven't taken one of them off since. If you get a good one from him, you're in luck, keep it.

Clark Fobes sent me 4 of his wonderful Eb extensions to try a few months ago, and I haven't taken a really good one off since. They make a big improvement in the pitch & quality of an Eb Clarinet.

So, if you two are interested in new improvements to the pitch and general sound of your Eb Clarinets, get in touch with Morrie & Clark. Their equipment is great...!

I have not been paid, or received any free equipment from either of these fine craftsmen. Good luck with your search.
