RE: The Festival Clarinet

Buffet started to sell Festival and Elite maybe not earlier than 10 years ago and surley after Boosey&Hawks merged Buffet.
In Japan,many orchestra clarinet players started to play Festivals when they came up.But now there are only a few players use them.I do not know the exact reason.But I can guess as a pro,it is equally important for a player to love an instrument and for other players to love the clarinet player's sound.Does any clarinet players of American major orchestras use them?
If I were your friend I will take a more popular professional model such as R-13,RC,or their presige models since they have been tested for very long period,maybe longer than 40-50 years.And there are quite a few accessories in the market to match them such as barrels, mouthpieces.
