The sound is IN the player. A clarinet is merely a vehicle for the expression.
The two different bore Yamahas that I'm playing on now are capable of all
the expression maybe even more expression of sound than I was getting on
all of the Buffets the boutique clarinets that I've owned"

I've heard Tom play. He can pretty much out play everyone on this board, but lets not go there. It doesn't matter.

Like Tom, we both studied with Iggie Gennusa and play double lip and we both have very decent sounds. Lets forget about this too.

But lets look at what we both did the last couple of years. We both tested pretty much every clarinet we could find. Tom did stay pretty much with Buffet's, however I tried everything I could get my hands on. For us, the Yamaha's won. We both can afford anything we want from the Tosca, the Backuns, but for whatever reason the simple, least expensive pro CSVR standard clarinets won out.

No they do not play like Buffet's, Selmer's, or any other horn. Maybe that's why I'm happy with them. They have THAT SOUND I want. I've said it before, the A clarinet is the best A clarinet I've ever played.

From first writing about these horns a lot of people have converted. I've even gone to the plant and picked up some horns for some friends. This is not my goal. My goal is to see other companies get their acts together and give us great horns at respectable pricing. Horns that play great right out of the case.

Sadly the prices did go up, but it's still $1000 less than an R13. Seems like a no brainer to try a Yamaha, if you hate it buy the Buffet.
