 Do I need a shorter barrel?
Author: m1964

Hi
I recently got a used R13 Prestige A clarinet.
I has tuning problems. Some of those were caused by keys not lifting high enough. I corrected those and now the notes that were affected are in tune (grossly).
There is another problem I was unable to correct.
The whole instrument is low by about 10c.
It was a trade- in and it looks like the clarinet was not played recently.
Would the tuning improve as I play more?

Otherwise I have a choice of either cutting the original 65mm barrel or buying a 64 mm barrel.

Does anyone know much higher the tuning will move if I get the 64mm barrel?

Thank you
