Kessler Custom by Backun Clarinet Barrel

Kessler & Sons Music offers a 3 day trial / return policy by default on our Kessler Custom by Backun clarinet barrel. There are no cleaning fees or restocking fees (assuming that the item is returned in proper condition).

Before we ship any new Kessler Custom by Backun clarinet barrel, we actually inspect the barrel in the shop to ensure proper fit. We own full sets of Backun factory made reamers to check the tenon fits of the barrels. This ensures that the barrel should fit your clarinet. The barrel might be a hair loose compared to your barrel since your cork has likely compressed over time to your barrel. However, you can generally still test the barrel without much issue. If you do have any issues with fit, you can use a Teflon tape (also called Plumber’s tape) to wrap your cork to help provide a more snug fit of the barrel while not impacting the fit of your stock barrel. This Teflon tape can usually be purchased at your local hardware store for a very low cost.

Please read our terms & conditions (link at the bottom of the page) for full details on this policy.
