Buffet Crampon has a rich tradition in saxophone production, going back to the very early days of the instrument in the late 19th century. The early Buffet horns were in fact very similar to Adolphe Sax's original design. Their saxophone production really took off in the 1950's, with the Dynaction and then Super Dynaction models, which many players consider to be some of the best French-made saxophones ever outside of 'that other company in Paris.' Buffet decided to go in a new direction in the 1970's with the 'S' Series (S1, S2, S3), which were aimed more for strictly classical players. The release of the Senzo is arguably one of the finest new saxophones to come out in long time.

Some general notes about Buffet's saxes: Most 'modern' Buffet horns (after about 1930) usually tune to A=442, since most were being sold for the European market where slightly higher tuning was standard. If the serial number of your sax has an 'A' after the number, this was made for the American market where A=440. The difference between A=440 and A=442 is noticeable, but not a huge deal for the modern player, and can easily be adjusted for no matter what setting you find yourself in. The Evette name has long been saved for Buffet's student level instruments. Some of these will be stamped 'Buffet Evette' and some just 'Evette' or 'Evette Schaeffer.' For the most part, these can be pretty decent instruments, but are still considered student level with pricing to reflect that. For a more thorough history of Buffet, see their.

Although the dates in these charts are reasonably accurate, there may be some discrepancies for various reasons.

Here are a few things to bear in mind: • Sometimes a company may hold back a batch of instruments and then release them a couple of years later. • The production of old and new models can overlap, or in some cases features of a new model appear on the later batch of the previous model. This can lead to what we call transitional models, which have some new and some old features.

A famous example would be the early 30s Conn instruments. • Many companies make other instruments, not just saxophones and the serial numbers are spread over their entire range. So saxophones may not be numbered sequentially. • Serial numbers can be used to identify supposedly “better” instruments. It is sometimes (possible erroneously) supposed that five digit MKVIs are the best.

Or you want to play a horn with a number that is close to your idol’s saxophone. Why do people sometimes mask the last three digits of a serial number? When advertising an instrument for sale, you will often see the serial number referred to as 36xxxx. It is rumoured that there is a scam, by which somebody who acquires your serial number can then claim the instrument is theirs. This may just be paranoia as I have never heard of this happening, nor can I understand how it could happen. Ideally you should have a record of the serial number with your sales receipt and won your insurance details.

A serial number can of course be used to identify a stolen instrument. If a seller does hide part of the number you may wonder if they are trying to hide the fact that it is stolen.
