Subj: [kl] Tone Hole Problems
Date: Thu, 20 May 1999 00:23:30 -0400

I have recently purchased Buffet R-13 "A" clarinet which has the
following flaws:

1. The facing of the "c#//g#" hole appears not to be cut the same way all
around.

2. The bore of the throat "f#" and "g#" tone holes have rough spots that
could be smoothed out.

3. The facing of the "f#", "g#", and "a" throat tone holes have scrapings and
bumps.

The sound is not as full as I would like it to be. I want the big orchestral
sound. Could any or all of these be the culprit? Who is a good person to send
the horn to for repairs. I don't think it needs a total overhaul.
Thanks
