Re: older R13 clarinets

I LOVE my 1963 R13, and find it superior to any other instrument I've tried.

I have a new Greenline, and both my teacher and another clarinestist in community band have pronounced it very fine.

Last week I was playing on the 1963, assembled the Greenline, and put the mouthpiece on. The Greenline's sound was coarse compared to the sweetness of the 1963.

Also have a 1964 R13, but it doesn't compare to the 1963. I guess that one is one of artist quality, and absolutely love it.

So be sure you try the older instruments out before purchase.
