Dear friends,
(This one for clarinet players only. Technical stuff.
Others may want to delete now.)
My mate John McCarthy, another of Australia's great reedmen, is trying to
buy a Bradley adjustable (59mm - 69mm) barrel for his clarinet.
He saw one advertised in a printed cattledog from about 1998.
However, I have tried, on John's behalf, to track down this Bradley model
for him, via Google, with no luck.
Have Bradley gone out of business?
Other makers have models which start at 61mm.
I am assured that there is an audible difference between 59mm and 61mm
clarinet barrels.
Any help locating a source for this particular Bradley barrel would be
appreciated.
Kind regards,
Bill.
