I have a relatively new Buffet R-13. When I bought it I had tuner in hand
and don't remember any particular problems.

Now, I have noticed that the twelfths are a bit wide and a few notes are
further out than the rest. The worst is the first line E, which is at least
15 cents flat. Middle C is a bit on the flat side too. The clarion register
notes are pretty consistent.

Questions: Can the twelfths change over this rather short period of time?
Can the E be fixed without messing up the clarion B?
