Hi everyone I’ve recently received a buffet Crampon clarinet as a gift and been trying to find out what model this might be with no luck. It has the serial number which is 35883.

It’s a “pre R13”, the professional model made before 1955.

Hi thanks for your reply.
Would you mind explaining to me how is it possible to tell this is a pre R13 ?
Thanks

First immediate clue is that it has the double post for both G# and A. You can also find serial number lists online and yours is from 1949 which is before the R13.

Thank you for helping me out. Was really curious into knowing and now really happy with it.
Plays fairly well but will need a overhaul soon.
Again thank you
