Yamaha YCL-CSGIIIH Custom Bb Clarinet (Hamilton Gold-plated Key)
Reinventing Tradition
Yamaha reanalyzed and reevaluated literally every single design specification. The bell and the barrel offer a tone of breathtaking richness and depth. The sound is warm yet has a clear focused center surrounded by a wealth of overtones, resulting in extraordinary beauty and expression.
Bell and Barrel
Slightly plump barrel and thick-walled bell produce a deep tone with rich resonance.
Improved key shape with proprietary Yamaha key-plating
Ergonomically-designed new key shape offers comfortable and natural key touch. Proprietary Yamaha key-plating is applied on the keys, allowing a focused and centered sound.
New Eb lever
A newly shaped Eb lever is adopted as a standard, along which the entire mechanism is totally re-designed as well.
Pads made of cork and leather
Cork pads and leather pads are optimally placed to maximize on their tonal quality, touch and functionality.
