Paul Evette and Ernest Schaeffer bought the firm in 1885. "Evette" clarinets were intermediate level instruments. "Evette and Schaeffer" clarinets were high-end intermediate level instruments from Buffet until about 1980.

Evette is comparable to Buffet E11 (Made in Germany) now.

I personally feel that French Evettes made in the 60s and 70s are much better instruments than E11
