 Re: 63mm barrel for Yamaha Custom CX

Hi Bob,

Thanks so much for that. I'll keep it all in mind as I figure things out. I'm really committed to this MP. I've had it for at least 6 months and I tried about a dozen others and they were not nearly as comfortable to play for me. I actually find it really helpful that that decision was so clearly right as it narrow down the options and allows me to fine tune elsewhere.

My teacher is absolutely set against me using extra fingers on the throat notes. I'm a bit confused about that as everybody else seems to do it, but I'm happy to follow his judgement as he really did well himself in his clarinet playing career.

Today I dropped off my 63mm barrel to be adjusted so it's not too narrow to go on the clarinet, so that will solve one problem. I haven't heard back from Yamaha UK about what lengths of barrels they sell, but hopefully soon.

I had no idea that tuning in the throat notes could be adjusted by a technician. That really sounds like a wonderful thing. :-) I'd love to know more about that.

Thanks!
Jen
