Description
Awesome deal on an intermediate wood clarinet from one of the top brands!
Includes upgraded Vandoren B45 hard rubber mouthpiece ($150.00 value) and Rovner C-1R ligature & cap ($56.99 value). The case is not the original, it is in a YCL-250 case. Also included: swab, cork grease, & 2 reeds. There is some minor cosmetic wear on the keys & body.
Please note, wood clarinets require a bit more care than plastic student clarinets. They must be kept humidified and oiled around once per year to prevent cracking of the wood. Bore oil is about $10 and in-case humidification systems range from about $20-$30. We strongly recommend purchasing these items along with the clarinet. Cracks are not covered under warranty.
This instrument has been cleaned & serviced by our repair shop and includes a 90-day performance warranty with the option to extend for an additional fee.
*****
Featuring a bell shape and barrel design similar to that of the V Series, the YCL-450 offers a surprisingly 'professional' sound with an easy response. The new bell design gives improved intonation and projection, especially in the all-important lower register, while the new barrel enhances the 450's response, flexibility and tonal focus.
