Both joints are stamped with the same serial number 30230, which indicates the year of manufacture to be ABOUT 1948. This model was the top-of-the-line professional clarinet offered by Buffet Crampon before the introduction of the famous R13 in 1955.The main reason why the vintage pro-level Buffet clarinets are coveted and sought after by the players is the quality of the grenadilla wood these instruments were made of: the wood was allowed to air dry for 20 years or more to ensure that the clarinet won’t crack and was of the finest grade, very hard, dense and naturally dark. These days, the wood is used for the current R-13 is less dense and stained black to hide imperfections. Only the top-of-the-line models, such as Prestige, Tosca and Divine currently offer similar quality of wood. Other than the exquisite quality of wood and craftsmanship, these clarinets are highly coveted by players because of their fantastic intonation and the tone quality.These so-called ‘pre-R13’ clarinets offer unique advantage to the buyer: a chance of purchasing a fantastic professional instrument for the price of the new intermediate clarinet, they are truly a hidden gem.Once restored, this could be a very beautiful instrument - the wood is very rich. This is something you will never see in the stained grenadilla these days._________________________________________SEE ALL OUR GUITARS ELECTRIC GUITARS VINTAGE GUITARS AMPS SYNTHS KEYBOARDS SPEAKERS’ VINTAGE STEREO MIDI EQUIPMENT HORNS WOODWINDS & OTHER MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS AS WELL AS COOL COLLECTABLES AND HARD TO FIND ITEMS AS WE LIST THEM IN OUR EBAY STORE FOR YOUR “SOUND INVESTMENTS”ALSO, YOU CAN SEE OUR STORY IN “BUCKS COUNTY MAGAZINE” UNDER SOUND INVESTMENTS USA LLC. 2021Please see our reviews.Thanks for your interestPlease note: the handling fee is for shipping insurance only and local free pickup is always welcome in N.J.****Please see our eBay store for tons of music gear*************Musical instruments and equipment of all kinds********WE SHIP WORLDWIDE FOR INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING QUOTES PLEASE DO THE FOLLOWING TO GET THE QUOTE.Sign into your account & hit “BUY IT NOW” and when the page comes up to confirm, it will show you the international shipping cost.
