Question
I have an Evette, Sponsored by Buffet, Paris, France, serial # E2019 both barrels. What is it's age and anything else you can tell me about this Clarinet. I am assuming it is a b flat clarinet.
Hello Daniel...The earliest serial number I could find for your clarinet is 2385,which is from the year 1965....Presumably, your clarinet is a few years older than this...These are usually intermediate level clarinets,selling for $400. or so on Ebay [if in overhauled condition. Your clarinet is almost 50 years old which lowers the price for clarinets...Cheers JACK
