I have a Leblanc Basset Horn, the rest of my instruments, Bb, A, D, Eb,
and Bass with low C are all Buffets. I used to use a Noblet (which I
really like!!), and I had, at one time, tried all the Leblancs out (the
old line) before selecting a Buffet Bb. I tried the line out again last
year and a couple of years before that when the Opus and Concerto were
released. Gotta love those conventions!
