If these two keys have been fused on a single joint, then it is not a Buffet Crampon R13 clarinet. You can also search near the “A” and “Ab” keys by the top of your clarinet. If your number is higher than 50,000, more than likely it is an R13. Check the serial number, located with a tiny stamp on the back of your clarinet’s barrel or on the case.
If the Buffet Crampon logo stamped on the clarinet has no additional stamps, markings, or plaques, it might be one of the highly esteemed R13 professional models. These are upgraded models and mostly were produced prior to the ‘60s. Some Evette models might also have a “Master Model” stamped beneath the Buffet Crampon logo. If your clarinet is wood-bodied with the same “EVETTE” stamped in the middle of the Buffet Crampon emblem, then you are holding a B12 model, if it is a plastic bodied clarinet than you have an E11. If you find “EVETTE” stamped in the middle of the Buffet Crampon emblem, then you have one of Buffet Crampon‘s student or intermediate grade clarinets pre 1983.
