*These
numbers were allocated by me. Buffet's website would have you
believe that all were produced in 1950, which I find |

Difficult to believe |

Please note…. The reason I have come up with yet another online serial number listing is because I can’t find ANY online that
are as current as this one. I
gathered most of the info from Buffet’s official interactive website… a
somewhat time consuming
process… and I thought I’d save
myself and others this work in the future. Also, I felt that someone
needed to allocate the mystery
years of 1946 thru 1950. The
mystery years of the early 60’s has either been determined by Buffet or has
been allocated by them
according to the above chart.
Now… if you want to find serial number
listings for other makes and models… here are some possibilities:

And of course… I usually have R13’s,
pro Selmers, and various “interesting” clarinets for sale. Feel
free to email me at:
chuberry@yahoo.com.
That’s NOT the ONLY reason to email me. I
LIKE to chat with other folks about interesting clarinets (and saxes) and
discuss problems, values, etc. I am happy to give free advice to those who
aren’t sure if they have found a piece of junk, or a rare treasure. And
would love to hear about a great find… if you like to brag, I’m all ears.
