Re: Buffet B12 Clarinet confusion

The B12 is plastic.
The E11 is a student model wood clarinet. (The wooden B12 some would say).
The R13 is the first level pro instrument. There are other more expensive models offered by Buffet.

All of these instruments are Buffet clarinets. Their prices in the US have been standardized by Buffet in the past year, so there is not much in the way of bargain shopping to do...just to make sure you are not being overcharged.

I agree with tictactux: find a price range you are comfortable with and then go try several of those clarinets, preferably with some help (private teacher).
