The Yamaha YCL-450M Intermediate Clarinet features a grenadilla wood body with an ABS resin upper joint insert. Its proprietary “Duet+” technology, derived from oboe design, adds an ABS resin lining inside the bore to protect the wood, reducing internal wear. This lining supports greater precision, leading to a more consistent tone and pitch. It also lowers the risk of damage from humidity changes, ensuring reliable sound and playability over time.
