The Buffets S1 truly are hidden Gems, widely recognised by many users as one of the best clarinets Buffets has ever made. Much bigger rounder sound than the R13.

I have a pair and i have used S1 for 40 years , i also have three spair Bb's in mint condition.

I have used them on TV, radio, Jazz gig and tours and would never part with them.

They were very popular with orchestal players when they switch from B&H 1010, similiar sound but much easier to play and ideal for woodwind doublers.

The great American clarinetist Mitchell Lurie played on S1's and his grandson now uses them.

Production continued quite later in Europe because they were very popular in Switzerland where quite late s/n can be found well into the 300xxx period.
My first one was S/n 159000, my current Bb is 204000 and i have one 315000.
The latest s/n ive seen was345000 in Switzerland

I have recenty paired mine up with a Backun Fatboy barrel and the sound is enormous now. Great combination.
