Hello everyone,

I just heard via email from Clark W Fobes and Walter Grabner.

IMO, Clark was extremely upset at all the "disinformation" on the BB. To set the record straight: 1) Wesley Rice makes the 10k mouthpiece "blank", according to Clark's design, and is then hand finished by Clark himself. (Per Clark, Wesley had never made a clarinet mouthpiece before. Clark taught him everything.); 2) Wesley Rice has nothing to do with the San Francisco clarinet mouthpieces; 3) Clark's San Francisco clarinet mouthpieces are created from customized ZINNER blanks which are not available to anyone else. They are then further hand customized.

Walter's mouthpieces, barrels, and bells are made of the same material.

So...

1) Daniel Frazelle's posting is not entirely correct. Wesley makes the 10K mouthpiece blank, not the finished mouthpiece.

2. Ken Jarczyk's statement in 2016 about the 10K was entirely correct.

3. I was totally wrong in stating Clark's San Francisco blanks were made by Wesley Rice. (I have no idea where I heard or read that information.) I apologize.

Hopefully, now, I have everything correct and have given Clark the credit that is properly due to him.
