Re: What is wrong with Buffet?

I think the guy that won the LA Phil job is playing on a Guy Chadash clarinet. I met him about 3 months ago. A very nice man Russian I think. Young and talented. I think he was from the Met. David Shifrin was using Yamaha's for several years before going with Backuns. But I'm not paying $21,000 for a set of those clarinets.

As far as the Chicago Sym, I think Greg Smith is using older R13's. Not something new. He is toying with testing the Yamaha's. I'm not sure if he will. So a lot of Buffet players are using older R13's from the 1960's. These horns have at least tripled in price. All of the other models have gone down in value. Another major clue for Buffet to get their act going. The R13's back then were $300. A new Buffet now drops $1000 in value as you walk out of the music store. Silly Buffet! At the same time Yamaha's are holding strong.

It is also extremely hard to pick out a quality Buffet when the horns leak. You may be playing on a very fine horn but it sounds horrible. With Yamaha you know right away what you are getting. You only have to play on 2 or 3 horns. They all sound sweet!
