Claire -- I have two Marigaux 2001s, made two years apart. They differ from each other in intonation on particular notes, and so I cannot tell you there is a particular Marigaux intonation pattern. Both instruments were quite stuffy until broken in (a year for each of mine until they seemed fully resonant). I had some tonehole work done on each of them to even out the scale in terms of intonation and resistance. I played Loree for many, many years (AK models), and then Laubin (which had a color which I loved, though the instrument had problems), and now the Marigaux. I play professionally, and have been satisfied with them. If you are going to have any work, such as tonehole modification, done, wait until the instrument is broken in.
