 Help identifying an unmarked clarinet - do have serial #
Author: beckaroof

Hello. I am looking at a clarinet that is an unmarked wood one. It's possible it's a Buffet but all I have is a serial number to go off of. The serial number is 983313 It does not have a fixed thumb rest that some of the older R 13 clarinets have. Trying to purchase a good older wood clarinet for my son that will be heading off to college in a year as a step up from his student model Yamaha 250. If this purchase doesn't work out any advice on a great wood clarinet that wont break the bank so to speak would be appreciated. Thanks so much.

Can you post pictures? Does it say "Made in Germany" anywhere?

It does say Made in Germany right under the serial #. Trying to figure out how to add pics of the clarinet

Thank you so much. I truly appreciate your help. What should I expect to pay for it and is it a good clarinet or are there others that I should be looking at? I don't want to go broke but would like to send him off to college next year with a better clarinet. Not sure if he'll be doing just marching band or orchestra as well. Thank you again.
