Your instrument for professional sound – the Yamaha YCL-650E in the proven Boehm system

The Yamaha YCL-650E is a Bb clarinet for advancing players, music school graduates and ambitious ensemble musicians ready to step up to a higher-quality woodwind instrument. Part of Yamaha's proven clarinet line-up, it combines traditional craftsmanship with thoughtful technical refinements – for a warm, projecting sound and precise playing feel in the globally established Boehm system.

Grenadilla body and redesigned bell for a rich, round sound

The body is made of carefully selected, natural grenadilla wood – the classic clarinet timber for a warm, resonant tone. The redesigned bell with resonance chamber improves projection and intonation especially in the low register, while the tapered, hand-undercut tone holes support a clean response and balanced tonal colour. The newly shaped 65 mm barrel rounds off the sound and delivers a focused, quick response.

Precise mechanism for effortless, expressive playing

The silver-plated nickel silver mechanism with 17 keys and 6 rings in the Boehm system gives you the full range you need for a broad repertoire, complemented by the practical Eb lever for more comfortable fingering. Blued steel needle springs ensure fast, reliable key action, while the Lucien Deluxe double-skin pads provide a clean, durable seal. The adjustable thumb rest can be fine-tuned to your hand position.
