Re: Leblanc Pete Fountain barrels cut short?

I have learned a lot since returning to music and the clarinet six years ago after being away for over 40 yrs. One of those things is that I like Pete's earlier smoother, more "liquid" style more than his later flashy style. My first encounter with his playing was of course his Lawrence Welk perforances on TV and subsequent albums when I was a youth in Indiana. And I think he must have been playing a LL during that time. (I'd be interested to know when he switched.) I've lusted after a LL ever since learning that, but have made myself stop buying more clarinets. Trying to make up for lost time has gotten expensive.

Andy - do I assume correctly that your Dynamic Hs tune well with the 66mm barrels?
