Re: R13 identifying

Author: Chris P

On recent Buffets the R13 isn't marked as such (on the top joint), but the RC is - so if it says RC on the top joint but R13 on the back of the bell and barrel then I'd ask for a refund or find out where the joints have been mixed up.

If it has an R13 top joint and RC bottom joint, then the serial numbers won't match. So there's always a way to find out.

And Prestige joints have metal tipped tenons (that's if a Prestige bottom joint gets mixed into the equation), so that's another giveaway.
