Warm clarinet tone, modern protection – the Yamaha YCL-450M Duet+

With the Yamaha YCL-450M Duet+, you get a Bb clarinet that combines the warm, round tone of a grenadilla wood body with a clever protection technology. As the Duet+ version of the proven YCL-450, this instrument is designed for advancing students and ambitious players who value reliable playability and a polished, professional sound.

Duet+ technology: wood tone, better protection

The bore and tone holes in the upper joint are lined with a thermoplastic ABS resin – Yamaha's Duet+ technology. This significantly reduces moisture absorption into the wood during play, helping prevent cracking and keeping intonation stable throughout the instrument's life. The characteristic warm tone of the grenadilla wood is fully preserved.

Precise mechanism for effortless playing

The silver-plated nickel silver keys of the 17-key/6-ring Boehm system move smoothly and respond precisely to every fingering. Fish skin pads provide reliable, tight sealing of the tone holes, while the height-adjustable thumb rest with strap ring adapts to your hand for relaxed playing, even during long practice sessions.

Your benefits at a glance:

• Moisture-resistant bore: Duet+ lining protects the bore and tone holes against cracking and intonation issues.
• Warm, authentic wood tone: Grenadilla wood body for a round, professional sound.
• Precise, smooth mechanism: Silver-plated nickel silver keys on the proven Boehm system.
