Hi Hunter,

Thanks for explaining. I'm 100% double lip. I have tried switching back to single, but it just feels really alien and weird to me, and makes my jaw hurt. I did used to play entirely single lip, up to grade 3, but had to change after having covid.

I have a claritie sling, which supports the entire weight of the clarinet, so I can actually play no-hands and the instrument is still entirely stable.

This is the sling here:
https://www.wwr.co.uk/daniel-s-claritie-clarinet-support-that-takes-all-the-weight-off-the-thumb-aclarinetsupport.html

In addition to the straps you see in the photo, I wear a both-shoulders saxophone strap, and the wooden block is hooked tightly to my belt by nails, so that the clarinet is basically on very solid scaffolding.

I also have a kooiman thumb rest which means I have good control of the rotation of the instrument which really helps on high C.

I really know what you mean about high C. That's a tricky one right enough. It works for me, but I am still getting the muscle memory in place to get it to come out reliably in tune.
