Re: Any Quality Clarinet Technicians?

A LH Ab/Eb came standard on my Patricola C clarinet but after a few months I took the key off - my other clarinets don't have one, and I was constantly getting lost and pressing the wrong key with my left pinky. I had played at the time for 50 years without it and didn't find it enough of an advantage to learn to use it.

You may find it handy to have, especially if you don't have a long history to overcome of not having it. But if you haven't already, you should try a clarinet that has the extra key before you pay to have one installed. You may not like it.
