Buffet CramponMoennig Clarinet Barrels Bb - 67 mm
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Replacement Moennig-taper barrel for Bb clarinet at 67 mm, the long end of the range. For players flattening a sharp horn or chasing a darker core.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players running sharp in warm halls or long rehearsals
- Bb clarinetists wanting a darker, more centered sound
- Upgrading from a stock student or intermediate barrel
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- A clarinet, or anything a beginner needs on day one
- Players already flat at pitch — 67 mm pushes flatter still
- A clarinets — this is the Bb version
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Moennig taper
The reverse-taper bore is the point. It tightens response across registers and evens out throat tones.
Detail 03
Bb-specific
Cut for Bb clarinet dimensions. Won't seat or tune correctly on an A clarinet.
Detail 04
Barrel, not a full joint
Swaps in seconds between mouthpiece and upper joint. No tools, no permanent change to the horn.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check your current barrel length first — 66 mm is the common stock size
- 02Tenon corks may need fitting or greasing to seat properly
- 03Sold as the barrel alone. No case, mouthpiece, or ligature
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my Buffet R13?
It's cut to Buffet Bb specifications, so yes on Buffet Bb clarinets. On other brands the tenon diameter may differ enough to need a repair tech to fit.
02Should I get 66 mm or 67 mm?
Depends on where you sit at pitch. If you're consistently sharp and pulling out at the barrel, go 67. If you're at pitch or flat, stay at 66 or shorter.
03Does a barrel really change the sound?
Yes. Barrel bore shape and length affect resistance, response, and intonation across registers — most noticeably in the throat tones.
04Can I use this on an A clarinet?
No. This is the Bb version. Buffet makes a separate Moennig barrel cut for A clarinet.
