Linking the mouthpiece to the body of the instrument, the barrel plays a decisive role in intonation, homogeneity and richness of sound. Buffet Crampon offers barrels for Bb and A clarinets, available in grenadilla, Green-LinE® and mopane.
- The ICON barrel is extremely flexible in every register, and its conical bore can, if necessary, improve the intonation of twelfths. Depending on the finish (silver, gold or black nickel), it frees up, enriches or compacts the sound, for excellent projection and controlled air consumption.
- The RONDO barrel, with its highly precise bore, guarantees the homogeneity and richness of sound appreciated by clarinet players around the world. Its lightly rounded shape pays subtle homage to the elegance of Viennese clarinets.
Precise and carefully shaped, Buffet Crampon barrels let you refine and personalise the character of your clarinet.
