Overview
YCL-450 Mk III Bb Clarinet
Featuring a bell shape and barrel design similar to that of the acclaimed Yamaha V Series, the YCL-450 offers a surprisingly 'professional' sound with an effortless response. The new bell design gives improved intonation and projection (especially in the all-important lower register) whilst the new barrel enhances the YCL-450's response, flexibility and tonal focus.

New adjustable thumb-rest and strap ring
