Just thought I'd vent to you all... maybe it will help, but probably not... my poor 10 month old baby is in the repair shop because I just found out the pads were all set wrong and it's screwing up a lot of things... it's going to be there all week and I'm going to have to play on a plastic school horn... I don't really care about that, it's just that my clarinet is... oh, I'm just really not happy right now...

That explains it : I've heard of (and seen) some really poor stuff from Buffet products, especially clarinets, the past four/five years. After you get 'em fixed up they're fine. They just don't come from the factory that way any more.

Poor thing ... when I got my "first" real clarinet (I used a crappy plastic Yamaha on loan from school), it was a Selmer and I was so excited I nearly pee'd my pants. I took it home and started to play - and THAT was when I discovered I have perfect pitch - they bastards (pardon my australian vernacular) had sold me an "A". I took it back to the music shop and then had to wait for a week and a half whilst I waited for them to order my B flat ... it was worth the wait, and if I hadn't been a poor student at the time I might just have kept the A. *sigh*.Jessica wrote:
