By significantly improving the accuracy and stability of the bore, Yamaha has successfully created clarinets with a clear tone and perfect intonation. To overcome the various quality problems inherent in wooden wind instruments, the Duet + models use innovative techniques which form a protective layer for the bore. The combination of precious wood and high-end resin is not only a "duo" between tradition and technology. It's a "Plus" advantage!
This innovative technology, used for the first time on our oboes, has been incorporated into our intermediate clarinets. The bore and the chimneys of the upper body are pierced in a fairly wide way in order to be able to inject ABS resin into it, thus instantly forming the clarinet's bore. This process preserves 90% of the wooden part constituting the upper body and its natural exterior appearance of the wood.

The most notable improvement to the YCL-450M is the introduction of Duet + technology, taken from the oboes. The milling of the bore and the chimneys of the upper body is slightly larger in order to inject a thermoplastic ABS resin, thus instantly forming the final bore of the clarinet.

The new adjustable thumb support has been designed to provide greater playing comfort whatever the size of the hands. It is equipped with a ring to attach a cord, allowing to reduce the pressure on the right thumb.
The YCL-450M is fitted with tapered point screws, allowing precise and easy adjustment of the keys.
A new shape of the 12th key register tube improves articulation in the second register. It offers a very pleasant response, which makes it easy to play, even for young children.

Je jouais sur une clarinette d’étude bon marché jusque-là : tout est plus facile et plus beau avec la yamaha qui a un son feutré très agréable.
