Re: Buffet R13 Bore sizes

I just bought a Buffet R13 from 1970. I've only played it a couple of times but I am happy with it. It has a more classical sound and ring to the tone than the Centered Tone but I feel like it will work for both classical and jazz.

The tech I took it to said that there was a change in the bore design around 1970 to fix sharpness in the high notes. Does anyone know exactly what year that might have been? I've read a couple of posts about it here. One said there was a change in the early 70's, another said the late sixties.
