Re: Unmarked Buffet Clarinets?

Yep, I have a clarinet I bought off of the auction site that is marked "Carl Fischer" and "Excelsior" but I am 99% sure it is a Buffet. There is a thread hanging around somwhere that describes the details of the keywork,etc... What is unusual is that it is fairly obvious where the clarinet had other logos sanded/buffed off. You can see an actual depression where they were and even make out a few faint traces of letters. This clarinet was filthy, and I bet hadn't been played in 30-50 years so I'm pretty sure this wasn't done recently to fool somebody. Besides, I got it for less than $50 dollars. It really wasn't in that bad of shape and I should have it up and playing soon! Also, I think I read somewhere that people imported some "filed down" Buffets because Carl Fischer had exclusive importer rights? Just the Buffet name causes bidding fits on the auction site, even for High Pitch instruments sometimes (strange) but some unmarked ones that really look like Buffets get looked over.
