Gary, he plays an R-13 with the upgraded silver keys. I have no idea why,
but one of the reps for Buffet thinks that they actually may be a slight
upgrade in the wood. They aren't supposed to be, but you never can tell.
We tried them out in Libertyville and it did seem to be the case, I'd do a
blind listening test and always end up picking those. Then again, don't ask
me, I play a "vintage" 10G, lol.

His real forte is the mouthpieces, he is really good with them, very picky
(VERY) and since he retired last year the work has picked up. The QS he
worked up for me is extremely killer.

Terry is in the market for a new A. All I can think of is, OH
NO.......another grail quest..........

NI!
