Buffet E11 supposedly is the same thing as the Schrieber WSLES ... any thoughts?

The E11 was made by Schreiber until very recently.

Buffet have recently introduced a new model "E11 France" which is a new design and manufactured by Buffet in Paris (in the old Leblanc factory I believe).
As Chris says the original E11 was a German made instrument by Schreiber so it's likely that Schreiber are making the same (E11) model there under this new name.

This is true... i knew that buffets were made (until recently) by schreiber, but i'm asking if the WSLES is LITERALLY the E11?

I doubt it'll be much different - only the wrap-around speaker key is the major change (and a couple of minor cosmetic things).

Chris , what's this wrap-around speaker key you mentioned, don't tell me someone has actually decided to go for the German style of speaker key and get rid of that stupid bore intrusion.
