Re: critical thoughts on the new TRADITION Clarinet from Buffet Crampon

Francois,

One thing I've been curious about....

I see many models (tradition included) being designed on the advice and play testing of many professionals. Above (and I've seen them elsewhere as well), there are complaints from some customers, and even repairman.

I'm curious to find out (private email would be fine, and I'd keep private if requested), how much market research you do wth repairman or NON-professionals when designing a new clarinet. Certainly some of it would require retooling at the factory (metal pins instead of nylon, raising the thumb rest, etc), but it seems to me that throughout a design process, it can expose the long term reliability issues that repairman can help to expose as they service clarinets with 20+ years of use, whose designs and weak points haven't been addressed yet (seemingly....of course only time will tell, but I'm curious how much of that has come into play when designing your latest models over the past maybe ten years)
