Re: Overhaul expectations

With a quality overhaul from a tech that is adept at tweaking intonation and response, a Vito Resotone or B&H 10-10 can play better than most new, professional clarinets (with the possible exception of Yamahas, which are set up reasonably well). The setup and attention to detail is at least as important as the provenance...in many cases more so. Buffet R-13s can be nice clarinets, but for decades now they have been delivered with a huge variety of dimensional and setup variation...an R-13 that has never had a professional setup can be profoundly better when returned from a competent overhaul.
