A posting in another thread tickled my curiosity. I have a Yamaha YBB-621S that is just a tad sharp. Depending on the season (and the temperature, and the first clarinet...), my tuning slide is somewhere between 1/2 and 3/4 of the way out.


This isn't a real problem, but I like to tweak, so, should I:


a) experiment with a sousaphone bit


b) try the T cup and T7 shank that Charlie was pushing


c) have Dillon's make custom tuning slide extenders


d) think deep thoughts


e) practice more


f) The Princeton Band
