 E-11 vs Academy Model
Author: King Rat 
Date:   2007-04-04 22:08

I'm new here and have my first stupid question: assuming the used Buffets have been overhauled recently, which model is better --- a 1995-era Buffet E-11 or a Buffet Academy model #40XXX?

what i want to know is e11 versus academy model vs master model. in my opinion (have only tried the e11) i would presume that the master model is the equivalent of the academy model. maybe maybe not.

Our inventions are wont to be pretty toys, which distract our attention from serious things. they are but improved means to an unimproved end, an end which was already but too easy to arrive as railroads lead to Boston to New York

Buffet "Academy Model" with the serial number below 50,000 is rejected (Pre-R13) professional clarinet due to some cosmetic flaws and/or some inconsistencies with the bore.

Hi,

Here is a link to a thread about my Academy model. I played it in a concert last weekend and it was great as usual.
