The Yamaha YCL-450 clarinet in Bb (B-flat) is designed for advanced clarinetists who want to switch to a wooden clarinet, or for beginners who are looking for an instrument that will help them develop well in the future.
 
The Grenadilla wooden body and the silver-plated mechanism give the YCL-450 not only a professional appearance but also a rich, warm sound. With the newly designed barrel and bell, the instrument has a remarkably light response, focused tone and precise intonation. The power forged mechanism is very durable, ergonomically designed and features blue-steel springs, making it play lighter than Yamaha's entry-level clarinet.
