Buffet Gala Professional Clarinet
Affordable Performance without Sacrifice
The Buffet name in clarinets has been the standard among professional clarinets for almost 70 years! Their clarinets are sought after for their tone and overall performance. Unfortunately, many of their models have stretched beyond the budget of many aspiring clarinetists which is a problem that Buffet needed to solve. The solution to this issue is the Buffet Gala Clarinet; a professional clarinet, made in France by the storied maker, at an affordable price.
Tradition Based Bore
In 2017, Buffet released the Tradition model with a completely new bore. Designed to provide a thicker, richer tone, the Tradition gave great tone but was also more resistant for many players compared to the R13 / RC bore families. The Buffet Gala clarinet takes elements of the Tradition bore family and provides a more balanced, even response that the R13 is more known for. The Buffet Gala posses the rich harmonics of the Tradition with the overall balance of the R13 family.
Professional Setup
Every clarinet we send out to a customer is not released from us unless it has been completely setup in our shop first. This is because the setup on the clarinet is of the utmost importance! Sometimes, a clarinet (regardless of who the manufacturer or the price point is) comes in needing 20 minutes of adjustments and then the very next one can require 2 hours!
This is why we perform our setup (in our www.ClarinetRepairs.com ProShop) on your clarinet before delivering it to you. You trust us with your purchase and we want to make sure that you are rewarded by giving you your new Buffet Gala clarinet setup flawlessly!
