Hello Everyone,
Well it's finally happened to me, so can anyone help? A gentlemen came to sell me (or my one of my students) a "Buffet E11 Eb" clarinet that his father used to play. He shows up, and it isn't an Eb, it's a C clarinet. Plays wonderfully, needs a little work. Needless to say, I bought it (and my wife didn't even complain).
As I understand, there are no serial lists for E11s?
Second: Logos are engraved, not painted
Third: "Made in France" not Germany
Serial: 24XXXX
Finally: Crystal mouthpiece Bb mouthpiece, on table a signature looks like "D e l a ?? o ? s" on table and "Selmer" on opposite side.
Any thoughts? Was the guy completely wrong and this is an R13?
Hope everyone is well and thanks for the help!
