Re: Buffet Prestige Middle Tenon Woes...

If the makers adopted the basic pattern of the full Boehm models and made the centre tenon longer and also put the correct size tonehole for C#/G# in it's proper place i.e. slap in the centre of the tenon/socket joint this would:
a) provide a really good toned and in-tune note (and it doesn't need to be an articulated mechanism.
b) greatly improve the stability of the centre joint.

I have seen comments that it makes the tenon weak - well in seeing well over 1000 clarinets in my workshop I have never seen a broken center tenon on a full Boehm.
My own Leblancs (semi-full system) show absolutely zero center joint wear/wobble after more than 50 years.
