Most student clarinets have thin and porous cork on the tenon joints. Combine this with cork that is improperly cut and applied and you have a clarinet that does not join together for a proper fit. Wobble and poor playability are the result. All Suzuki clarinets not only use specially engineered sheet cork, our experienced, trained craftsmen cut, taper and apply the cork so that each clarinet section has a snug, secure fit.
