Replacing the hugely popular Buffet B12 was never going to be easy.
The new Buffet Prodige has worked hard to ensure beginners on a budget can create the best sound possible. For the first time Buffet have moulded and drilled the bore entire in Europe in an effort to produce consistency and reliability. The new bore has been inspired by Buffet's E series clarinets which are aimed at grade 8 intermediate players so it's great to see this technology has filtered down to the student level. This new bore allows unprecedented ease of play, projection of sound and intonation
Buffet has also redesigned the bell to optimise projection.
Features on the Buffet Prodige include
Bb - 442 Hz Pitch
Co-Polymeric ABS body with the poly-cylindrical bore
Silver plated key work
17 keys, 6 rings, leather pads,
Adjustable Thumb Rest
Rubber Dampers
