Buffet Crampon E11 France Clarinet--New Pads, Backpack Case!

 
One of several intermediate Buffet Crampon clarinets we are offering for sale. This is hard-to-find E11 France—the French-made version of the more common German E11, made by Buffet in the Buffet factory alongside their professional clarinets.  It is in excellent condition:  grenadilla wood body with no chips, cracks, or repairs, tenons nice and square with no wobble between joints. Plating about 99.9% with little if any wear at all.  It looks, frankly, almost new, and unlike most of the clarinets you might be looking at, this one has just been through the shop where it was cleaned, bore oiled, and repadded with new Ferree’s B17 de’Jur double-bladder, pressed-felt pads.  Ready for your student to play right out of the case, with a crisp feel to the key work and an open, accessible tone.  Cork grease and key oil are for local pickup only, but it does include an upgraded Vandoren 13-series mouthpiece in an M13 facing, Rovner inverted ligature and cap, cotton swab, new ProTec microfiber cloth, and an adjustable thumb rest with cushion and strap hook.  Comes in the lightweight backpack case with two zippered, external pockets with room for lots of accessories—perfect for the bus or walkers.  A great clarinet for your advancing student in the best condition imaginable, and at almost $2,000 less than a new E12F!
