This is an excellent condition Evette & Schaeffer wood clarinet in A, made by Buffet Crampon in Paris, serial number 129293. At the time of production, this was Buffet's “entry level” instrument, but by today's standards, it's more associated with the intermediate level. It's a true grenadilla wood instrument, made in the Paris factory by Buffet's artists. It now has all new pads and material, and is a fantastic option for advancing players looking for their first A, or any player wanting an A on a budget.

The body and original bell and barrel are all in great shape, with no cracks and no crack repairs. The nickel plated keys show minimal finish wear and everything is tight and in perfect working order. This clarinet was just repadded in our shop by our top clarinet tech, Audrey Denny. It has Valentino greenback pads throughout, with synthetic material under the keys, and has been precisely adjusted for a flawless feel.

This clarinet plays with a beautifully warm, dark tone, with a strong response and a deep resonance. A wonderful addition to your clarinet family, it will not disappoint. Ships in a good vintage case as pictured.
