Re: various length barrels

I need a barrel that short because I rent an A clarinet from a local music store and the 65mm and 55mm barrels it comes with don't do the trick. The 65mm is WAY flat and the 55mm is WAY sharp. I end up using the 55mm and pulling out the top 3 joints to get it in pitch. Most notes are in pitch but several aren't. I just bought a new Bb clarinet a year ago and can't afford to buy an A at this time, so I rent. If I need to rent it again, I want a different barrel so I don't have to do so much adjusting of so many joints.
