 Re: Martin Fröst partnership with Buffet Crampon

Buffet currently has 12 professional level clarinets (not counting the Greenline versions of the above), with the R13 now being relegated to the bottom of the list. Does one really think that another pro clarinet model will bring anything substantially different than what can be found among the dozen current models?

It sounds like Buffet is just trying to attach a big name player to increase sales, when in essence they should thin the herd and put more quality control into current production.

Remember when the R13 was the only pro model Buffet offered with the highest quality wood? Players of the 1950's -1970's did just fine with that.

And let's not forget the new pro models that Buffet introduced over the past 25 years which they then discontinued for lack of sales, acceptance or price point.

...GBK (whose Buffet clarinets are all from the 1960's and early 1970's)
