To the PerfectReed...

Through my sarcastic comments, I meant to convey that without empirical measurements, I believe that old clarinets that have been played and played can still function as well as anything fresh out of the factory. The conflicting ideas about this are almost proof that the difference between a good old instrument and a good new one are largely beyond the ability of the ear to hear.

We live in a profit oriented world, and as a result the glorification of old things that can not be currently manufactured and marketed today has to countered with myths such as the "blown out" myth. I believe the profit motive would naturally prohibit Buffet from saying, "our new r-13's are every bit as good as the old ones, with the possible exception of some of the premium grenadilla has already been farmed and so we are forced to use wood which may not be up to the old standard".
