Buffet Crampon Legende Bb & A Clarinet

The Buffet Crampon Légende Clarinet will surprise players with its accurate pitch and immediate response. Its precise and centered tone, characteristic of a new bore concept, brings out a whole spectrum of sound, encompassing the brightest and softest of coloring. Its intuitive handling allows the musician the utmost freedom of musical and acoustical expression. 

The Légende's precise and reliable play is ideal for clarinet players with very eclectic demands. It is also offers aesthetic options, being that it comes in rose gold and silver as was done for instruments made during Buffet's 190th anniversary. An original medallion in gold plate puts a finishing touch on this clarinet, distinguishing it as a unique and notable instrument.

Greenline

Buffet Crampon developed the Greenline series in 1994 as a way to produce a professional instrument that can withstand admirably to variations in atmospheric conditions (temperature, humidity), but also reduce the manufacturing impact on the African grenadilla wood population. 

The Greenline body is constructed of 95% grenadilla wood and 5% polycarbonate fiber and epoxy resin. This gives it a much higher resistance to the effects of temperature and humidity changes, especially preventing any cracking.
