Of the three new R13s I've bought in the last 25 years, all were overhauled by me soon after purchase because the pads were single skin substandard, the springs were too strong, pad heights were not optimum, rings were too high, and some keys needed adjustment. While they all played good when new, they are much better after the overhauls. One I picked from a dozen at the Buffet facility when it was in California, but it may not have been the best one there. They had an acoustic room with a repair shop at that site and Mr. Kloc was very helpful. Yet, for the dozen new R13s I tried there, all needed some work. The purchase cost of these three new R13s was quite low, however.
