About the model
Research and development is both a rigorous and creative process. In collaboration with our workshops and internationally renowned clarinetists, Paul Meyer worked on the research project for developing new acoustics, resulting in the Divine clarinet. This model benefits from having the same hole placement as the Tosca model which allows for better intonation in every register. The improved bore favors flexible register-crossing and freer blowing during the most demanding pieces. The Divine clarinet comes with two barrels 65mm (442hz) and 66mm (440hz) which fit with both the Bb and the A model. The Divine is made of grenadilla wood with specific upper joint Green Line tone-hole slots eliminating air leaks on tone-holes most prone to crack. The carbon wire (a Buffet Crampon patent), which replaces the metal rings, makes the clarinet 60 grams lighter and thus contributes to its exceptional balance with greater vibration and freer blowing. As with the Tosca model, the Divine clarinets are equipped with a low F correction key. New keywork and spatulas enhance the clarinet???s ergonomics without destabilizing the musician???s capabilities. Whereas the Tosca clarinet was the R 13 bore???s top range model, the Divine features the Buffet Crampon RC bore???s latest evolution. This new range of clarinet represents a major step forward in Buffet Crampon???s history, by fusing technical expertise with unparalleled craftsmanship in French wind instrument manufacturing.

Lohff & Pfeiffer comments to the model
The Buffet Crampon Divine is the topline professional clarinet, inside the RC family. Available as A and Bb

The wider bore design reduces the resistance and increases the overtone spectrum, which makes it very colorful. Players, who prefer more resistance but like the sound, should try the combination with a less open mouthpiece and a little harder reed. Well balanced, it will give the right feeling and the sound you are looking for.

The Divine has, like the Tosca, an additional F correction key installed, which helps to bring up the pitch on the low F. For players who wish an even sharper F or E Buffet offers also an additional low E resonance key, but the law F is still on the lower side. We can add our LP-Lew E-F Correction mechanism which eliminates this problem altogether. .see Low E-F correction .

The Divine comes with the left hand Eb/Ab key.

Additional Key features
1. The left-hand, lower joint side-keys for F#/C# and E/Bb have a new O-ring covered metal pin, to eliminate braking.
2. The Tenons are provided with a metal tenon-ring for protection.
3. The C#/G# tone hole is raised for better intonation.
4. Adjusting screws for G#, Left-hand F/C, F-correction and right-hand ring-key.
5.Tosca-style side trill keys.

The Divine is available only in unstained, polished African Blackwood. To reduce the risk of cracking, the Divine has the 4 top tone holes lined in Greenline. Therefore, a Greenline version is not available/needed.

Like all instruments with a wide bore, it has less resistance and allows the use of a closer mouthpiece. It can be combined nicely with RC, RC Prestige as well as older free-blowing instruments. See also Clarinet bores and sounds.
