 Bb/A: Difference in playing feel
Author: RLarm

I've always wondered why there can be a tremendous in playing feel between a Bb and A clarinet. On some instruments, especially certain Buffets it is EXTREMELY different. And then on all Yamahas I have ever played and on my Ripa the difference is much less. I have been told by several old-timers that the old Buffets felt almost identical and the same goes for Oehler system Wurlitzers. Is it an acoustical reason? Any answers or theories? And if there is an actual solution, why aren't the manufacturers implementing this change into their A's???
