On the Friday (6/17) listing, Clark Fobes discussed his use of the
Straubinger pads.
Clark recently performed a complete overhaul on my R-13, using some
of these pads on the bottom section. The upper section utilizes cork, plus
one Straubinger pad. I have never played on a more responsive instrument!
The horn is absolutely air-tight. Other players here in the Orange County
have played my Buffet, and are equally pleased. These new pads are
first-rate (the rest of Clark's work is pretty remarkable, too!).
I'll keep the net informed on the long-term life of these pads.
I do a lot of playing!
