    Dear doublers. In my workshop I have a very beautiful SML marigaux bass clarinet. It is a wooden bass clarinet with a very nice wood quality. But what is annoying this bass is very much out of tune and I don't know how to fix it. With the original neck and playing loud it is something like...

    What's the difference between these mouthpieces? Has anyone tried them both in the same opening? I'm asking because I have a Fobes San Francisco HB (2.00 mm opening) that I really like. It's currently my favorite mouthpiece, and I love the sound that I get from it, but I sometimes wish it were...

    So i recently got a school rental bass clarinet, and the tenon corks are very worn, but are still playable. I was not sure what thickness of cork i should get. I found some small sheets that are 3/64" thick, and i wasn't sure if these were too small. Also, it is a Selmer Bundy Low Eb if that...

    I've recently restored a Vito bass clarinet. Got it cheap as it needed overhauling. It came without a case. New cases cost a lot so I'm looking around to see if there's anything I can adapt/ make a case from. It's a one piece so that makes things a bit harder. Does anyone know of anything I can...

    I primarily play bari and recently got a professional Kessler Custom tenor and have been enjoying it for a while. However, after seeing that Kessler just released a new batch of Midnight Low C bass clarinets, I'm thinking that getting one of those things would be a better investment than a...
