 Re: defective Buffet double clarinet case

Why they insist on having toneholes with razor edged crowns to the bedplaces that punch the centres from pads is anyone's guess. As long as the toneholes are level and have a blemish-free and a more pad-friendly crown to them, then that's all you need for pads to seat and seal successfully on them. I have yet to see a single Buffet that doesn't need tonehole work to fill in imperfections and level them.

If I was a Buffet dealer, I'd strip down and rebuild every single instrument of theirs before selling them. Some companies in the UK used to do that in the last century.

When the Tosca was their top model, I was appalled at the build quality when I serviced one that was barely a year old as I felt there were too many problems with it to warrant the high pricetag. And then there was the case...
