You run i an instrument sales business don't you, Mr. Fobes?

I have a question for you and anyone else who may know:
I colleague of mine just bought a new Buffet e-flat clarinet.
It is a regular r-13 model, he just went up to the factory today
and got this horn. I see tht that the bodies now come in
TWO pieces. He said that Buffet has trouble finding bodies
of wood that are good which are long enough. Is this the case?

Abnd does this mean that other manufacturers will shift
to two piece bodies for e-flats?

Therefore the old models will no longer be produced, right?
Will those e-flats still in stock which are one piece be
offered at a lower price? Just hoping. . .
