On the other hand, I have a Buffet with an "F" prefix serial number, allegedly pitched for "French" A =442, and its scale, tuned to 440 is just awful! The horn came with a silly cardboard gauge that is supposed to validate the mouthpiece volume. Its a mouthpiece bore sized strip that pokes into the mouthpiece with a limit line that is supposed to assure you that, if the line aligns with the bottom of the mouthpiece tenon, it will bring the clarinet into tune at 442.

Test and try before you buy.
