The Yamaha YCL-450M is a high-quality intermediate B♭ clarinet that blends traditional wood clarinet tone with enhanced durability and playability — ideal for advancing students and developing players looking to step up from a beginner model.
Tone & Materials
- Grenadilla wood body delivers a warm, rich tonal character that’s sought after in professional clarinets.
- The upper joint incorporates Duet+ technology — a thin ABS resin lining formed inside the bore — protecting the wood from humidity and temperature changes while maintaining natural acoustic properties. This improves long-term stability and consistent performance.
Playability & Ergonomics
- 17-key, 6-ring Boehm system offers a familiar, responsive key layout for intermediate repertoire.
- Silver-plated nickel silver keys are smooth, durable and provide comfortable action.
- Adjustable thumb-rest with strap ring allows customization for various hand sizes and helps reduce fatigue, making extended practice or performance more comfortable.
Design Enhancements
- Second register vent tube improves pronunciation and response in the upper register, offering easier control across the clarinet’s range even with moderate breath pressure.
- Straight tone holes with tapered undercut enhance intonation and even tonal quality throughout the instrument’s range.
- 65 mm barrel helps produce a focused, centered tone with efficient breath flow and flexible expression.
Included Accessories
- Typically includes a Yamaha CL-4C mouthpiece suited to intermediate playing and a protective case for safe transport and storage.
Who It’s For
This model suits intermediate clarinetists progressing from beginner instruments who want:
- A richer, more resonant sound typical of wooden clarinets
- Improved durability and tuning stability in varying environments
- Ergonomic features that support comfortable technique development.
