1997 Buffet Festival Bb Clarinet.
I'm selling this for a friend, a now retired pro who was a student back in the day of the legendary Gino Cioffi and went on to be a founding member of the Navy Commodores Band and play with Stan Kenton and others. HIs name is Bolek Peplowski, patented inventor of the "Bo Pep" Flute Cradle.
This is a 1997 Festival, with less than 10 hours of use on a Bill Street overhaul. Bill is a pro's pro and one of the best in New England for decades. The instrument is in excellent condition, no crack or issues and playing superbly.
This was selected from seven available Buffets at the time in Rayburns of Boston. Purchased from Emilio Lyons there. This is the one that stood out to this serious pro.
Comes with the 65/66mm barrels. No mouthpiece.
The case shows some wear but fully functional.
