 Help identifying Buffet clarinet
Author: iowagrad

I have a clarinet my family purchased for me while I was in high school that I would like to know more about. I can't remember which year I got it in, but it was somewhere between 2005-2007. It is wood, labeled "Made in Germany", and the serial number is 914436. I looked on the Buffet Crampon site but am having trouble identifying what model this is, as I did not see any category this serial number fell under. Any help would be appreciated. I can add pictures if that would help. Thanks.

That's an E11 - they should have the Buffet logo and model number printed on the top joint above the throat A key but it often wears off.

The opinions I express are my own.

The Buffet serial lists only cover the professional and intermediate models that are actually made (in France) by Buffet.
German made (Schreiber) instruments e.g. B10, B12, E11, have a totally different list but I have not seen an online source for these models
