Yamaha YCL-221II Standard Bass Clarinet

With its two-piece body and compact case design, this student bass clarinet is an ideal choice for easy transport to school.

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.
