Buffet Crampon E12F intermediate Bb clarinet outfit

Introducing the Buffet Crampon E12F intermediate Bb clarinet outfitThe Buffet E12F is a justifiably popular clarinet model that directly replaced the Buffet E11. The E12F takes some design cues from models higher up in the Buffet range, but manages to remain an exceptional overall value for money.This instrument is perfect for those moving on from their first clarinet onto an instrument more suited to the requirements of higher grades. Hand-crafted from incredibly strong Grenadilla wood, it’s able to produce exceptional tone quality due to the resonant nature of this natural material.Quality constructionDesign and manufacturing quality are very evident with this model. The 17 keys are crafted onto a unique bore design with the solid wood having been treated and lacquered for maximum protection against humidity change. A water-based varnish is used, meaning the instrument is much less susceptible to cracking due to changes in temperature.The forged keys are coppered and silvered to give a smooth and solid playing surface. The action is responsive and incorporates blue steel springs with leather pads finishing everything off nicely and, most importantly, providing that all important seal. The instrument is also made using screwed pillars which makes the whole clarinet much more sturdy and long lasting.Perfect for advancing studentsBuffet have designed this clarinet to be narrower than other student models, which in turn makes it more free-blowing and thus easier to play. This model also has accurate tuning and an adjustable thumb rest with a ring suitable for a neck strap. All in all, this model is priced competitively, but has the characteristics and quality sound that you might associate with much more expensive instruments, making it perfect for intermediate players.What’s in the outfit?Quality protective case with an accessory pocketAttachable back pack-style strapsBuffet mouthpieceMetal ligatureFelt pad dryerThumb rest cushionVandoren strength 2 ½ reedOur Buffet clarinet rangeBuffet Crampon Prodige student Bb clarinet outfitBuffet Crampon E12F intermediate Bb clarinet outfitBuffet Crampon E13 semi-professional Bb clarinet outfit with soft caseBuffet Crampon E13 semi-professional Bb clarinet outfit with hard caseMid-range clarinet designed for intermediate players, Produced using solid, seasoned Grenadilla hardwood, Coppered and silvered keywork, Adjustable thumb rest with ring for neck strap, Leather key pads for longevity, Supplied with a backpack-style case, Buffet mouthpiece, metal ligature, and Vandoren reed
