Re: Advise on keeping R 13 made in 2013

Thank you for your response. I don't think the suction was that great in the lower joint but then the key was out of alignment this last time, my fault I think. I only got about a 3 second suction and he has a machine to test the leak. I'll know more when I pick it up in a few days. He explained how he fixed the chip. What site did you use to get the value of the newer R13. I did find out where and when the clarinet was purchased new. Buffet said it was made in 2013 but the buyer bought it in 2017 kept it less than a year. I am still researching. Not sure why the 4 year time between when it was made and when it was sold. Maybe the former buyer bought it new but was really used. I'm not a professional but I don't want to be taking it to have the leak fixed all the time but this time I think it was me and the way I was holding it to put it together. He will check out the tone hole again. Thanks for your help. I might go clarinet shopping again after the holiday. Before I bought this one I tried 7 or 8 different clarinets, different brands new and used and picked the one I have switching out mouthpieces and barrels and now a new ligature which I really like.
