 is a 1967 R13 a wide bore clarinet?

I have a Brilhart Tonalin mouthpiece from the Great Neck era and I'm wondering if it suits this clarinet model well. I've heard it plays well with wide bore clarinets

The R13 is a small-bore instrument. A mouthpiece designed for a large-bore instrument may not work well on a small-bore instrument, and vice versa, and may result in poor intonation. All you can do is try for yourself and see if it works.
