New Buffet Clarinets
A prospective
customer recently asked me why he should buy from me. Here was my answer:
|
·
I am totally honest. I have a great
reputation in the clarinet world. Ask anyone.
·
I have been playing and working on clarinets
for 44 years. I will hand-select an excellent clarinet for you.
·
I will support and service your
purchase, and be your ambassador to Buffet on any issues you might have.
·
I am always available by e-mail or
phone to address your questions or concerns.
|
·
I am a qualified repair tech, so you
know your instrument will be set up properly.
·
I can help you select a mouthpiece that
enhances the clarinet and your abilities.
·
I'm a pretty nice guy, and you will be
supporting a working clarinetist and not a corporation.
·
If you are ever in Chicago, come by the
workshop and get a free adjustment
- best done after six months to one year of playing the clarinet.
|
New instruments NEED to be
set up. I will never sell an instrument “right out of the box”. Every clarinet
is inspected, play tested, and adjusted by me personally, ready for you to
enjoy. Since I am both a professional clarinetists AND a repair tech, I
will deliver an instrument you can love for years to come.
I offer a 10-day trial on
all instruments: Pay for the instrument, plus shipping and you will have 10
days to try it out. During the 10 day trial, if you are not satisfied, you
can return it with no questions asked.
Doublers! I held the
3rd/Bass/Eb clarinet chair in the Toledo
Symphony for ten years. If you want me to help you find that special R-13,
RC, or RC Prestige Eb Clarinet or an 1193 Bass Clarinet let me know. I can
help you find that right one!
If you’re in the Chicago area, please
call to make an appointment to come try out clarinets and mouthpieces in
person!
I sell
all Buffet models, including A clarinets, Eb soprano clarinets, basset
horns, bass clarinets, alto clarinets and contra alto clarinets. If you
have a question, please call or e-mail.

In
October of 2010, we got to take a tour of the Buffet factory. It was a
fantastic opportunity to view how much care and effort goes into making a clarinet.
The Buffet people were wonderful and we had a great time. If you ever get a
chance to visit Buffet, I highly recommend it.
The
Buffet Factory in Mantes, just outside of Paris.

touring the plant.
