This clarinet was developed in 1975 by Robert Carree, whose initials are carried through the range of clarinets. The main characteristic of this instrument is its focused and pure tone, created through the carefully selected African Blackwood body. This gives the performer freedom of expression and flexibility while performing ideal for the professional musician.
The remarkable feature of this clarinet is its exclusively designed bore. Not only does this give a great response, but it also gives homogeneity in all registers of the instrument. As a result, the RC has great stability that has won over so many professional musicians. The implemented egg-shaped inside bell shape gives a bigger sound projection.
With a Buffet RC clarinet, you are purchasing some of the best designed and manufactured clarinets on the market. The stainless steel rods and pivot screws are silver plated to provide strength, durability and a great stylish look. The silver keywork has been power forged and plated in copper and then silver plating. This gives a smoother finish and a longer lasting set of materials. The double fish skin pads meet undercut tone holes to create a fantastic seal and a sound that is full of tone.
