Yamaha YCL-621 Low Eb Professional Bass Clarinet Standard

The YCL-621 Low Eb Professional Bass Clarinet from Yamaha is designed for discerning clarinetists seeking an instrument capable of producing rich, nuanced tones in an extended range. Its grenadilla wood body resonates with a warm, woody timbre while the silver-plated bell, neckpipe and keys provide a clear, focused tone and durability. A floor peg gives players an ergonomic hand position for comfort over long practice or performance sessions. With a range extending down to low Eb, this bass clarinet offers musicians greater creative freedom to explore the instrument's expressive capabilities.

Grenadilla Wood Construction Delivers Superior Tone

Grenadilla wood, also known as African blackwood, is prized for woodwind instruments due to its density, strength and ability to resonate with a warm, complex tone. The YCL-621's two-piece grenadilla body produces rich overtones and a woody timbre that bass clarinetists will appreciate. The wood's hardness also provides a stable platform for the silver-plated keys and toneholes, allowing for an accurate, responsive feel under the fingers.

Silver-Plated Keys and Bell Focus the Sound

The silver plating on the YCL-621's keys, bell and neckpipe helps produce a clear, focused tone by damping unwanted overtones. Silver is also highly resistant to tarnish, keeping the instrument looking and sounding its best over years of use. The durable plating prevents the keys and toneholes from binding or sticking for a smooth, consistent feel and response.

Extended Range Opens Creative Doors

With a range extending down to low Eb, the YCL-621 gives bass clarinetists access to an extra octave and a half of expressive notes to explore. The extended range allows for greater creative freedom in soloing or composing and provides more options for experimenting with tone color and voicing. The YCL-621's focused, resonant tone helps each note speak clearly and musically across its wide range.

Includes a Lightweight Case for Protection and Transport

Yamaha includes a durable yet lightweight case to protect the YCL-621 and allow for convenient transport to rehearsals, lessons or performances. The case's hard shell guards against damage while its streamlined profile makes it easy to carry or pack along with other gear. For bass clarinetists on the go, the included case helps ensure their instrument arrives safely wherever they need it.
