Buffet R13 Professional Clarinet – Nickel Keys
also available in Silver Keys – click here
The Buffet R13 is the “legendary choice of professionals”. It is the most popular professional clarinet that has ever existed. Noted for its wonderful tone, intonation and responsiveness, just about every major clarinetist has played on or is currently playing on a Buffet R13 clarinet.
The Buffet R13 is also a very versatile and customizable platform. Using different barrels and/or bells, a player can transform the Buffet R13 platform in to their perfect, custom clarinet!
Additional Information
Professional Setup
Every Buffet R13 clarinet we send out to a customer is not released from us unless it has been completely setup in our shop first. This is because the setup on the Buffet R13 clarinet is of the utmost importance! Sometimes, a clarinet (regardless of who the manufacturer or the price point is) comes in needing 20 minutes of adjustments and then the very next one can require 2 hours!
This is why we perform our setup (in our www.ClarinetRepairs.com ProShop) on your clarinet before delivering it to you. You trust us with your purchase and we want to make sure that you are rewarded by giving you your new Buffet R13 clarinet setup flawlessly!

Bell Ring
You will notice on the Buffet R13 Clarinet that Buffet does not plate the lower bell ring on their clarinets, so these are left bare nickel-silver. All new production Buffet clarinets are like this and it is not a defect.
Special Notes:
Buffet officially changed their company logo design in 2016 and shortly thereafter, started to use the new logo on their clarinets. Our photos depict the newest production with the current Buffet Logo. For reference, the original Buffet logo on a R13 clarinet can be seen by clicking here.
