Length & Bore

Need help selecting length and bore for your barrel? Read our guidance below or contact us for further assistance.

Length

  • The barrel length determines the general intonation of your instrument
  • The standard clarinet barrel lengths are 65mm and 66mm (the longer length is typically used throughout summer months when the clarinet tends to be sharper)
  • We recommend you select the same length of your current barrel if you are satisfied with the overall tuning of your instrument
  • We recommend you select a different length if you want to correct your current tuning: a longer barrel if you are sharp, or a shorter barrel if you are flat

Bore

  • The barrel bore size largely affects the tuning of your instrument’s upper joint (your left-hand notes)
  • Clarinet barrel bore sizes vary by brand and model
  • Learn more about the effect of the barrel bore size on your tuning here

14.5mm Some Selmer models (including Recital)
14.65mm Most Selmer and Backun models
14.85mm Most Yamaha and some Buffet models (Légende and Tosca)
15mm Most Buffet models (including R13, RC, Divine, Festival)
