Natural oil finish and silver-plated keys make this a beautiful and durable clarinet. Featuring a bell shape and barrel design similar to that of the V Series, the YCL-450 offers a surprisingly 'professional' sound with an easy response. The new bell design gives improved intonation and projection, especially in the all-important lower register, while the new barrel enhances the 450's response, flexibility and tonal focus.

Yamaha Intermediate Clarinets feature a grenadilla body, barrel and bell. These models feature a bell and barrel vertically integrated from the popular Yamaha V-Series models. Undercut tone holes provide accurate intonation and responsive playing. Durable features include power-forged keys and blue-steel springs which stand up to years of use, and an innovative design helps prevent jamming or breaking of the bridge keys.

YCL-450 Model Options

Yamaha offers a number of variable options for select instruments.
  • YCL-450N - Intermediate Clarinet; key of B; nickel-plated keys and bell ring; CLC-180 case; 4C mouthpiece
  • YCL-450NM - Same as YCL-450N; except upper joint with injection molded inner bore

Features

  • New 65mm barrel: The YCL-450 intermediate model clarinet incorporates some of the distinct qualities of Yamaha's professional and custom clarinets. One of these features is a 65mm barrel design that produces a focused tone and quick response. Players looking to "step-up" their performance will do just that with this instrument.
  • New bell design: Nothing can be more frustrating than a soft sounding, out of tune instrument. A new resonance chamber in the bell of the YCL-450 aids in projection and improves intonation in lower notes, allowing for consistency and confidence.
  • "Blue" steel spring material: Intermediate instruments need to feel different than student model instruments. Part of making the YCL-450 "feel" better is the upgrade in spring material. Blue steel springs give the keys a lighter touch and feel while producing a smooth, quick action.
  • Sculptured, silver-plated keys: The silver-plated keys provide not only an enhanced appearance, but also a wonderful feel for the players. In order to make the keys to the appropriate strength level, a technique called power forging is used. The result of this hi-tech process are keys that are exceptionally durable and contoured to the best possible ergonomic shape.
  • Straight tone holes with tapered undercut: Yamaha intermediate model instruments set themselves aside with their use of professional materials and features. Straight tone holes with tapered undercuts provide outstanding intonation and response making the YCL-450 play like a pro model instrument.
