Re: Grenadilla quality

As a long time player of 60s and 70s era Buffets, I do agree that the quality of wood has markedly declined over the years, especially in the R13 which now gets the 2nd or 3rd best billets of grenadilla.

For those of you who believe in the Greenline myth of "grenadilla dust mixed with epoxy/resin" ask yourself why Buffet has NEVER shown a video of that process of manufacturing.

Give Buffet an A+ for convincing the world to buy a $4000 plastic clarinet.
