While I am not going to argue with Mr. Miller, I am still hoping to
see an explanation of why there are so many models of Buffet
clarinets (RC, R-13, Elite, DG, Festival, etc.) which appear to
compete against each other. With the possible exception of General
Motors, I can't think of another company that does this with an
expensive product.
