Re: Buffet Vintage discontinued?

Isn't trimming the range not only a natural consequence of almost continually offering new models but also necessary? It must be far easier and more believable to bring out a new model and say it's the best thing around (mechanics, intonation, sound, ergonomics etc) rather than try to convince people the the fourth iteration of Model X has those attributes.

We see this scatter gun approach with many product lines these days. Take a look at what UK breweries now do. There's a large range of beers in the lineup of many manufacturers and a while later most have gone, never to be seen again. There used to be three or four beers in the range over decades. Perfectly good products are removed as well, as with the Buffet Vintage. These days it must be hard if not impossible to create a new R13 type standard which would last decades.
