Looking for my next clarinet

Author: Ashle TK

I am currently looking to upgrade my clarinet. I current instrument is a yamaha 650, and the one previous to that was a 255. My teacher recommended an r13, but when I compared the r13 to a csvr and my 650, the r13 was really disappointing. The csvr was much warmer sounding and sounded much better than the pricier r13. Is that normal? I read that only about 3 in 10 r13s are really good and that the inconsistencies are characteristic of current Buffets. Seems like a lot of people recommend the r13, but why so few recommending the yamaha?
