Re: RS Berkeley Adj Barrel problem

Where did you purchase this, if you're willing to divulge the information? I've been seeing them a lot on That Auction Site, where the product looks different from what's pictured on the RS Berkeley website.

I'm still considering taking the plunge and getting one of these to help --heh -- fine-tune my intonation, but don't want to spend money for a crap product. I've gone down to a 65 mm barrel and am still on the flat side, though within an acceptable range (I.e., about 5 cent flat). I'm looking forward to when I return to band rehearsals and am wanting to blend better then.

At this point, I suspect my equipment (Selmer Signet 100) rather than my technique, but can't justify upgrading my clarinet. Yet.

(Edited to add that I just spent some quality time with my mom's trusty old Bundy and the tuner, and the problem is definitely the Signet 100.)
