477 Buffet Basset Horn in F "RC Prestige"
Stunning Buffet "RC Prestige" Basset Horn in F.
This fabulous instrument is in As New condition and plays perfectly. Original white Buffet leather pads and pristine Silver-plated keys. The instrument plays effortlessly down to Low C and shows barely any sign of use, with no scratches or dents on the keywork, bell or neck. The Grenadilla wood is in perfect condition showing no cracks. The original Buffet mouthpiece plays well in tune. Original case in pristine condition. The instrument is completely original apart from the addition of a spike holder on the bell. This gives the player more stability than using a sling.
Ideal for Mozart’s Requiem and Grand Partita.
The Buffet Crampon website states the following:
The basset horn was magnificently adopted by Mozart, and the great contemporary composers, including Boulez and Stockhausen, have written music for this instrument, whose sound is balanced and luminous.
These remarkably designed instruments are made of Grenadilla wood and finished with the Buffet Crampon Prestige finish.
The modern basset horn, designed with all of the perfected elements of the Boehm system developed by Buffet Crampon, enables clarinettists to play concertos and quintets as they were conceived and imagined by Mozart.
