Buffet Crampon | ICON Bb/A Clarinet Barrel

£200.00

Clear

Description

Like the Moennig and Chadash barrels, the ICON has a inverse conical bore, but the outer shape has been refined to give the barrel its unique and distinctive style.
The ICON has benefitted from years of acoustical research carried out by Buffet Crampon. The barrel improves responsiveness, increases projection, and aids definition in articulation.
In addition, the conical bore improves intonation of twelfths which can sometimes be problematic, depending on the balance of mouthpiece and reeds.
The different finishes of metal rings influence the sonority and feel of the clarinet.
  • Gold: produces more high harmonics and timbre
  • Silver: frees up and rounds out the sound
  • Nickel Silver: stands halfway between the two, producing a more compact effect.
