On the subject of the Greenline Buffet clarinet:

I have tried several at the music conventions here in Texas. I have also had
a couple come thru the repair shop where I am the woodwind specialist. They
seem to respond well, but the tone is pretty bright. The current R-13's are
bright sounding, but I have found the Greenline to be even more so. Since no
two clarinets play, or sound, alike you just need to try several until you
find one that suits your needs.
