Dan's messages always come through a bit strangely, so I didn't
notice that he had sent the message to me privately.
Let me be very clear. When I switch between the two clarinets it
sounds different to me. I happen to think the R-13 sounds better
although my old instrument is not that bad.
I am not sure if I could tell the difference if my son was playing
them. I think I could tell in a blind test if his teacher was playing
my old instrument and the R-13 (however, in this kind of situation it
would be more difficult to focus on a single aspect such as tone). I
doubt if I could tell the difference if she was playing her R-13 and
my son's R-13. They are both good instruments and about the same age.
