Well - at least let's agree that as a brand name it's got quite a few =
people
talking about it. I don't suppose anyone's going to say to themselves =
that
they wouldn't even try a clarinet with a brand name that suggested =
qualities
that weren't based on evidence. Hey - that's a Buffet Prestige, I won't
touch it - prestige is earned not bought, etc.
