What reeds do you use

[@jimis3167]

So, do you know which currently is the lightest weight Buffet clarinet model?

[@dawkesmusic]

The lightest Buffets are at the student end. So, the Prodige is the lightest, followed by the E12. However, if you're asking which is the lightest professional model(?) then they are all very similar. The R13/RC standard would be lightest because they don't have the extra left hand Eb key. After that the Prestige/Festival/Vintage/Divine/Tosca etc will all be fairly similar.

@@dawkesmusic Thanks! You covered my question, I was talking about professional models..

[@jimis3167]

Divine also is the lighter in weight than other Buffets, right?

[@dawkesmusic]

Not really. They have lost some weight due to the carbon fibre rings but they had to loose that weight there based on other weight it had gained with the extra low correction key, side Eb key etc. So - it's on par with other professional Buffet's in weight.

@@dawkesmusic Thanks for mentioning that! Until now I was thinking It's lighter than other Buffets, that's what I've heard from others at least.. They probably mean just a tad bit lighter, unnoticeably so..

I'm personally not a fan of the "diffuse" sound of the Divine. I much prefer the R13 family.
