John,

The keys on the B-12's are the same keys that are on the R13, at least in
size and shape. I tried taking them off of a B-12 and putting them on my
R13 the fit like a glove. If you are Buffet oriented the B-12 is the
way to go. BTW if think the intonation on some of them are better then
on the R-13. WHY?????????
