Product Details
Buffet Crampon R13 Green Line Professional Bb Clarinet with Silver Plated Keys
The R13 Greenline series of clarinets follows the same manufacturing process as the 100% grenadilla R13s. By adding carbon fibers, Green Line clarinets are able to withstand variations in temperature and humidity. The risk of cracking is therefore eliminated. Created in 1994, the Greenline series of instruments has taken advantage of the excess wood remaining from the clarinet manufacturing process.
This process of combining grenadilla powder with carbon fibers produces a clarinet that is greatly resistant to environmental change. This had made the R13 Greenline clarinets popular among military clarinetists, marching band players and touring musicians who play a lot of outdoor engagements, or experience fluctuations in humidity and temperature.
