Buffet Crampon Mopane R13 A Clarinet

This is a limited edition product, with only ONE available. Hurry, while supplies last.

 What do you think railway ties, agricultural tools and these new clarinet models have in common? Believe it or not, these three seemingly unrelated applications all benefit from the incredible resistance offered by Southern African mopane wood.

Mopane has warm mid-brown to reddish-brown hues that harmonise wonderfully with the gleaming silver, nickel or gold plated keys of our extraordinary musical instruments.

In addition to these remarkable mechanical characteristics, the mopane wood enhances this limited series by offering a mellow and warm sound that combines softness and brilliance combined with a powerful and direct projection.

The essence of this wood allows for the exploration of new sound colours with both pure pianissimo nuances and wide, open forte tones without any saturation.

The Buffet Crampon R13 is probably one of the best known models of any clarinet. As a result of the outstanding quality products sold by Buffet, the R13 has become one of the best selling clarinets in the world. 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.
