Welcome to Ashantee Music!Matching Exceptional Students With Quality Instruments
One of several Buffet Crampon clarinets we are offering for sale this spring. This is a Bb R13 in nickel, excellent condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs in the wood, and just minor plating wear mostly on a couple of the most commonly used keys. S/n 233XXX puts it at 1983, right at the end of Buffet’s Golden Era of production. Just through the shop where it was disassembled, cleaned, bore oiled, polished, and repadded with Ferree’s premium cork on the upper, and Ferree’s B17 du Jour pads on the lower. Plays exceptionally well, with a nice, crisp feel and better intonation across the entire horn than most other R13’s we have for sale. Comes in the period Buffet case which is also in good condition. An excellent horn from an excellent period in excellent condition, and at half the cost of new!

Purchases:
We strive to be accurate and detailed in our descriptions. If you have any questions or concerns about a listing, please ask questions prior to bidding. Photographs are considered a binding part of an item description.
Shipping:
Items are shipped after receipt and clearance of your payment. We try to ship far ahead of the handling time listed in the auction. Note that with international shipping, not all countries provide door-to-door tracking; therefore, buyer assumes full liability for item after leaving the United States.
Returns:
We have zero unhappy customers, and we have offered hassle-free returns for almost twenty years. Unfortunately, due to rampant abuse of eBay's automated returns, and since PayPal no longer refunds sales fees, we have had to revise our return policy. (1) If you are not satisfied with your purchase, please contact us PRIOR to initiating a return via eBay and allow us to address your concerns. Many items such as clarinets and oboes come out of adjustment during the shipping process, and can be easily tweaked by your local technician. We are happy to talk you through this process. (2) Items may be returned for any reason at your expense within seven days of receipt for a full refund of the purchase price less shipping and eBay fees, which are not refundable. If on receipt we are able to verify the item to be significantly different than described, we will additionally refund original shipping, PayPal fees, and your return shipping to maximum of .00.
Non-paying Bidders:
We reserve the right to relist or otherwise dispose of any item if payment is not received with three days of the auction close.
