 Re: Looking to Identify a Buffet Crampon Clarinet

It's an R13, serial number 120413. Based on the serial number chart at http://www.woodwind.org/clarinet/Equipment/HowOld/Buffet.html, it was made in 1971. My own R13s are from that time.

R13s made at that time sounded great, but the intonation was variable http://www.woodwind.org/clarinet/Equipment/Intonation.html -- sometimes very good, but sometimes very bad. They are amenable to tweaking (mine had a lot).

Everything depends on how it plays **for you**.
