Custom Feel and Eye-catching Appearance
Like the original YCL-650, the Yamaha YCL-650II Bb Clarinet is expertly crafted from responsive, high-quality grenadilla wood. Silver-plated keywork decorates the body, beautifully contrasting the underlying grenadilla wood. Additionally, an adjustable thumb rest makes playing comfortable for hands of all sizes. As a result, the Yamaha YCL-650II appears nearly identical to the Yamaha Custom SEVR model clarinet. But the YCL-650II’s trusty leather pads — designed to withstand heavy usage and eliminate unwanted clicking noises — are among its most significant new features.
Play like a pro without paying like a pro
If you’re a serious player seeking a professional clarinet, look no further. The Yamaha YCL-650II is not only affordable, but it also plays up to par with Yamaha’s pricier professional models.

Superior sound for the serious player
