Re: Buffet Bb R-13 New Intonation Issues

The twelfths are screwed up somehow, either a mouthpiece or barrel switch must have percipitated this change............. yes?

If not, I don't have much of an idea why all of a sudden the internal pitch would suffer a wild swing without some massive change to bore somewhere.

Of course my suggestion (without input ......yet) would be to try a standard 66mm barrel and a NON 13 Series mouthpiece...........or even better, try the stock mouthpiece (for intonation purposes ONLY, don't get all crazy with the "feel" of the thing). The idea is to see if you have wild intonation issues are of the same size (flat low "F" to sharp "C") and direction (are the throat notes still flat?).

Just try it; with a tuner; 15 minutes; that's all I ask.
