Re: Playing Massively Flat

I have a Noblet D/N, approximately the same age as yours. SN 16640. It has a 64mm barrel.

I don't know if it matters, but as best as I can determine without a proper bore gauge, my R-13 c.1992 has a bore that is a little smaller. Noblet~14.9mm/0.589" vs. Buffet~14.88mm/0.587". If the new barrels are made for Buffet it might make a difference.

The logo is oval, containing "Noblet Paris", with a "D" in a little lyre above the oval, and an intertwined D and N below. The top joint also says "France". The trill keys all have their own posts. Nickel keys. I can't say how it plays in tune, because I need to get pads for it.
