Re: "Donut" Fork Eb/Bb

I've had three donut key clarinets, two Buffet As and one Japanese, pre Yamaha Eb. Once adjusted, the donut key is not a factor in how the instrument plays. That fingering is really not required. The very old 1910 Buffets can play very well, perhaps not as bright as a recent Prestige Buffet. They sometimes needed a little tuning work by an expert clarinet tuner but they were often very fine. Good luck!
