Ditto ... much confusion with Buffet. I surmised that the E&S E13 was a way for Buffet to sell their "B" stock or stuff that didn't turn out as well as planned ... at some stage of production, they decided if the clarinet was an E13 or R13 and stamped the logo accordingly and performed the final fit and finish to match the semi-pro or pro status ... This dealer in NY was certain they had the same design, same wood, etc ... just a departure at some point in manufacturing for two different models ...

Now, the current E13? Who really knows for sure?

I suspect Buffet may be as confused about their history as we are ...

Remember the difference in clock speeds on the Intel 80286 processors? ... not made to different specs ... just tested and sorted ... the ones with "edge problems" were delegated as 12 MHz chips and the better ones were specified as 16 MHz ...
