They appear to be pretty decent clarinets! And it seems there are a few of them about.

Hi Larry. I wonder if the table of the mouth piece is uneven.The mouthpiece (Yam 4C) is in fine condition, never been dropped or anything, but it is hard blowing compared to the Noblet, which is way freer blowing
Also, when you refill your lungs with air and start playing again, think about expelling cool air vs. warm air.
A good articulation habit is to start the airstream with a "Too" sound vs. a "Tah" sound.
Hope this helps!
Comparing my 4c to my Hite premiere is like comparing blowing down a blocked pipe whilst suffering from a heavy cold, to blowing down a sparkling clean empty pipe whilst feeling on top of the world. So much difference in ease of blowing. That's why :-)Its funny you should say that because I do find playing my clarinet is rather like blowing through a hose pipe with a kink in it. But I thought that was just normal for a clarinet
