The Professional Clarinet That Performs as Beautifully as It Looks - The Yamaha YCL-650II Professional Bb Clarinet

For those who are serious about clarinet performance, but need to keep an eye their budget, the 650 is an excellent choice. The specifications of its bell, barrel, tone holes and other features are close to those of the top-of-the-line Custom SEV model. As a result, its sound is warm, round, and deeply resonant. Whether you’re a student of the instrument, or play professionally, you’ll find the YCL-650II to be the best clarinet for the price.

Carefully crafted for superior performance

Constructed of carefully selected and seasoned Grenadilla wood and boasting an enormous amount of handcrafting and hand-finishing, the 650 features tapered tone holes that are undercut by hand for precise intonation and superior tonal balance. You’ll also find beautifully sculpted keys whose touch has been regulated by master artisans for perfect balance..

An elevated level of comfort

From the moment you pick up the 650, you’ll notice that every detail of the instrument has been designed for your comfort. From the leather pads that make breath flow smooth and stress-free, to the keys adjusted by hand using Custom-model techniques, the 650 makes performing feel effortless.

Reduce thumb discomfort and fatigue

Since there are so many different sizes and shapes of hands, it only makes sense to include a way to accommodate for different hand positions. That’s why you’ll find an adjustable thumb rest specifically designed for player comfort, while needle springs provide faster key action.

Looks as good as it sounds

A great clarinet should also be easy on the eye – and the YCL-650II certainly is. The unique, natural finish that accompanies this beautiful-sounding instrument is bound to capture any audiences' attention.

Make less mistakes

In the 650, you'll find longer E/B levers. Additionally, the C#/G# keys are featured. This design reduces the likelihood of fingers slipping off the keys, improving performances, and lowering the chances of mistakes.
