Demo Stock / Open Box Buffet Crampon R13 Professional Bb Clarinet - Grenadilla
We have an incredible opportunity in the shop today. The Buffet Crampon R13 is the undisputed industry standard for professional clarinetists across the globe. We recently realized this specific R13 has been sitting as a display model in our shop for a bit too long, and with a new factory shipment arriving shortly, we are listing this as "Demo Stock" at a significant discount!
This clarinet has never been privately owned. It is a brand new, factory instrument that has only been gently test-played by our staff and local customers under supervision. It delivers that legendary, dark, and highly focused R13 core sound with impeccable intonation. If you are an advancing student or a gigging professional looking to secure a brand new R13 without paying the full factory retail price, this is an absolute steal.
