Buffet Crampon Evette Wooden Clarinet
The Buffet Crampon Evette was the wooden student clarinet, produced by Schreiber in Germany. The bore was 14.85mm wide and allows a free airflow with little resistance, optimal for beginners and young players. The dynamic range is stable from piano to forte and helps the student to get accustomed to a reliable intonation. The wide bore allows the use of closed mouthpieces without the feel of too much resistance.
The Evette was only available in African Blackwood with the black stained surface to give them an even look, independent from the original color of the different body parts. This has no influence on the sound. Buffet offered the Evette either with nickel- or silver-plated keys. There is no musical difference between the metals, only aesthetic (and can also matter for those with nickel allergies).
This one is used, but has been recently repaired, adjusted, cleaned, and polished. Pads seal, keys and linkages work properly. It's a great intermediate horn.
