 Backun cocobolo barrel warp
Author: ChuChu

My doubts about cocobolo being a stable wood has been realized. I purchased a MOBA 62.5mm barrel for my Selmer Signature clarinet in Oct. 2013 and now the barrel is unplayable. The response has really suffered as I can't get a good staccato and there is a grunt at the start of every note. I have a grenadilla MOBA barrel and I don't have this issue. I can literally see that the bore has warped and is out of round. Anybody else had this issue with this wood?

BMS is not offering me a refund or exchange because it is past 60 days.
I am never buying cocobolo clarinet parts again.
