Yamaha YCL221II Bass Clarinet - matte ABS resin, nickel silver
SKU: YCL221II
The Yamaha YCL221II Bass Clarinet
A two-piece body and compact case design make this student bass clarinet the “school-bus-friendly” choice! The matte finish gives the clarinet a much better appearance, while the ABS resin body makes the clarinet more lightweight and very durable while giving it a warmer sound and an excellent response.
Matte finished ABS resin body
The matte finish lends a sleek appearance to this clarinet, while the ABS resin body makes it more lightweight and durable. The ABS resin also offers a warm sound with excellent response.
Redesigned neck angle
The neck angle has been adjusted to match our professional models, resulting in a more comfortable and natural playing position.
Leather pads with plastic resonators
These pads (also used on our saxophones) are longer lasting and provide a better feel with increased projection than standard clarinet pads.
Redesigned register tone hole
This tonehole was scientifically designed and placed for extremely accurate intonation.
Rounded bridge key connector
The rounded key prevents key damage and eliminates the need to press the keys during assembly.
New joint system
The rubber rings around the cork help prevent air leaks, facilitate easy assembly, and stop keys from binding.
Compact ABS case
This durable lightweight case is smaller and easier for children to carry, making it much more bus-friendly. This case is also stackable and will take up much less space in the band room.
