Product Information

Buffet’s entry into the student Bass Clarinet market, this superb wooden low Eb Bass plays with real richness and punch in the low register. Thanks to a reimagined and simplified register key system, the clarinet jumps around with the flexibility of a smaller instrument.

The 1180 is the only student level bass to be made from grenadilla wood, which gives the sound of the bass depth and power. Intonation is excellent and playing across the break is easy, and Buffet have worked hard to make the sound across the whole range of the clarinet as homogeneous as possible.

Please Note: Like all instruments Dawkes provide this Buffet Prestige Low C Bass Clarinet benefits from our professional workshop set-up. This is absolutely critical with Bass Clarinets in particular where the pre-sale check can run into hours on these instruments. This is because there are so many ways they can be refined & improved ‘out of the box’.

The pre-sale work our experienced technicians complete (which is unique to Dawkes) ensures you buy a Bass that is worthy of the price, with service to match.

  • Made in France from selected and treated Grenadilla wood
  • Supplied in a  light, compact case
  • Includes mouthpiece, ligature and cap
  • Pitched in Bb, plays down to Low Eb
  • Silver plated copper bell
