| The question of why clarinets of the same model sound and play differently
| fascinates me. I'd like to learn more. All I know is in playing more than
| fourteen instruments while looking for a spare, this R-13 just leapt out
of
| the pack and I felt absolutely compelled to buy it last May. The more I
play
| it, the more in love with this horn I have become.

Just a parent of a high school clarinet player here...

I get the feeling that clarinet crafting is closer to creating a fine wine
than anything else in our mass produced world.
