The Buffet Crampon Limité is a rare, limited-production clarinet handcrafted in France as a special edition based on the legendary R13. Originally unavailable in the U.S. market, this model offers premium R13 features and craftsmanship at a more accessible price.

Built from select African blackwood, the Limité delivers the dark, centered tone and rich projection Buffet clarinets are known for. Its silver-plated keys feel smooth and precise under the fingers, while undercut tone holes and conical pad cups contribute to its excellent intonation and even response throughout the full range. The poly-cylindrical bore helps balance tonal richness with flexibility, and the adjustable thumb rest ensures comfortable, customizable ergonomics.

This instrument is fantastic for advanced students, serious amateurs, or professional clarinetists looking for a standout horn without the full R13 price tag.
