From Buffet: 

"The Legendary Choice of Professionals was created in 1955 by Robert Carrée and is the most popular professional clarinet in the world. Its tone is focused and rich, and it is powerful in all registers.

Its flexibility lends itself to all repertoires: symphonies or chamber music, soloists, teachers, military bands, students or amateurs."

Buffet's R13 clarinet has been the gold standard for professional-level clarinets, and that gold standard absolutely applies to all of of their other R13 offerings. This particular R13 A Clarinet was maintained incredibly well by its previous owner, and most of the maintenance this instrument needed while in its most recent owner's possession was done here in our shop. We know it to be an excellent player from experience, and we're sure you'll agree when you come to test it out yourself! 

Cosmetically, this clarinet is in great shape. It was very well kept by its previous owner, and would be a perfect option for anyone looking for their first, next, or last A clarinet. Interested parties may notice some cloudiness forming on the nickel keys, which is very typical of used clarinets at this age. All engravings on the bell, body, and barrel are very much intact, and the gloss finish on the wooden body is very much intact, showing only one spot of wear on the back of the lower joint. 

This clarinet was owned by a serious player in its previous life, and was brought to our professional woodwind technician for regular maintenance in the years leading up to listing it for sale here. Only regular maintenance was ever required, and we have no record of any pads needing to be replaced. Its included original case is in great shape, and has room for your Bb clarinet as well! 

This is a great outfit in great shape, and its ready and waiting for YOU! Stop by Horn Stash today to check it out!
