Yamaha YCL-255 S Bb clarinet
Product information "Yamaha YCL-255 S Bb clarinet"
The new YCL-255S clarinets are the perfect start for young clarinet students. Made from durable ABS resin they are easy to handle and with the new adjustable thumb-rest and improved strap ring, they are now more comfortable to play. By removing the metal ring from the bell we have made the instrument even lighter yet it still remains very robust. Accurate intonation and immediate response help students to produce a round sound.
New adjustable thumb-rest and strap ring
A new adjustable thumb-rest accommodates different sized hands helping the player develop proper playing technique. In addition, a strap ring allows for the instrument to be held without extra effort. Firmer screws and silver soldered ring gives this new feature excellent durability.
Newly redesigned bell
A new bell made only of solid and durable ABS resin plastic results in a lighter instrument with improved response. A resonance chamber in the bell aids in projection and improves intonation in lower notes.
Barrel design
A 65mm barrel based on high-end Yamaha clarinet designs produces a focused tone.
Matte finish
The attractive matte finish simulates the actual grain of wood while providing the added durability of ABS resin plastic.

German fingering or Boehm system?
In Germany, the German fingering is taught and played almost exclusively, while in other European countries the same applies to the Boehm clarinet. It was the German clarinet maker Boehm who developed this instrument in the 19th century. However, it was not well received by German instrument makers, so he went to Paris and continued making his Boehm clarinet there. From there, it began its triumphal march throughout Europe and the world.

Yamaha or A Company That Makes Everything. In fact, you could probably list faster what Yamaha does not make. The Japan-based company, active for over 125 years, is the all-rounder among instrument manufacturers. Having started as a maker of pianos, grand pianos and even wooden furniture, the range was soon expanded considerably: Yamaha now offers keyboards, string instruments, woodwinds, drums and percussion as well as PA and studio equipment. For example, youll find steel-string acoustic guitars, electric guitars, electric basses, the popular PSR keyboards, acoustic drumkits and e-drum sets, flutes and saxophones for beginners and intermediates, as well as the popular Clavinova CLP-700 digital pianos and entertainer keyboards like the Genos or the synthesiser Yamaha MX49, plus PA equipment and studio monitors for professional needs. In any case, you can always rely on Yamaha for excellent value for money.

Ein Hersteller wie Yamaha ermöglicht es Musikenthusiasten sich auch mit ohne zu großen monetären Aufwand in den verschiedensten Stilrichtungen umzusehen und dabei überhaupt keine Abstriche an grundsolider, zuverlässig funktionierender, toll klingender Ingenieurskunst machen zu müssen. Ich bin Fan. Und das ganze ist durchdacht bis ins kleinste Detail: selbst das gewichtete Reinigungstuch zum trocknen und pflegen der Klarinette ist dabei. Bass erstaunt war ich, und hoch zufrieden. Dabei ist der Kunststoff robust, nimmt keine Feuchtigkeit auf und klingt ausgesprochen gut für mein ungeschultes Ohr. Ich empfehle die Anschaffung!
