<<he story (I forget who posted it) of the corrections needed to get a
Buffet A clarinet right, involving cutting off one end and extending the
other, seemed like evidence enough. That would qualify as correcting a
serious design deficiency, not just "fine tuning." If this is, in fact, an
extremely rare situation, then maybe I am a lathered up over nothing. If
the whole lot of them requires that sort of attention to play correctly,
then there is a production problem that needs attention immediately!>>

The Buffet R13 A clarinet that I purchased new in 1996 played easily and in
tune right out of the box. Mr. Swiney probably could improve it further, but
the clarinet was quite serviceable as purchased.
