Mr. Kloc--

I have a Buffet R-13 A from about 1970 that is a little tired, and has some
stuffy notes (in particular the G#/C#). Is it possible to have this bore
inspection work done by you? If so, how much would it cost? Where do I
send it?

I would be overjoyed to have my little guy play better. I can afford a new
horn (as soon as my wife lets me buy it), but I have played so much on this
one that it has a great deal of sentimental value.

Thanks so much,

kjf

Dear Mr Edinger,

It will be better if you have somebody look at the general aspect and
condition of your clarinet before doing any repairs. In generally when I
receive clarinet like yours to do expertise, I go thru the instrument check
the tone holes, outside and inside, I measure the bore with my control
tools,
I check the undercutting, the wood aspect is very important too of course
and
many other things like that. If the instrument needs special treatment on
the
bore I use the factory tools to do it. Don't let any body reamed your
instrument. NOBODY has the factory tools in North America exept us.
You can runed easily an instrument by doing such operation with a non
apropriate tool. If you need anything please feel you free to contact me at
anytime on the e-mail: Felix 1297@-----.com or at my office at 847-816-2500 X

Musicaly Yours
