Vintage Buffet R-13 F Prefix Modified Boehm Prestige Pro Professional Wood Clarinet with Case and Two Barrels

Up for sale is a very unique vintage Buffet “Prestige” R-13 modified Boehm pro wood clarinet. This clarinet was made in Paris, France, in 1961, serial number F66087. The F before the serial number indicates that this clarinet was built for European ensemble playing and tunes to A 442. The modified Boehm system features an Articulated G# Key & Ab/Eb Lever (Left hand pinky). The clarinet also comes with another Buffet barrel, a 66mm one, that tunes the clarinet to A-440. We just totally overhauled this clarinet with new pads and corks here in our shop. While it was apart, it was cleaned and oiled. The clarinet shows no visible cracks. It will ship in its original case, that is structurally sound but does show some wear in the vinyl. Pictures say the rest. Available at Metro Gnome Music.
