Yamaha YCL CSGIII-HL Bb Clarinet
The YCL CSGIII-HL Bb clarinet from Yamaha features Hamilton gold plated keys. The combination of brass and gold makes this a durable warm material to work with. The hard case with fabric case cover provides versatile protection to your clarinet as well as allowing plenty of storage for reeds, music and accessories.
This clarinet from Yamaha is an ideal choice for a professional player looking for something a little different. With Hamilton gold plated keys, the same plating made famous by the Hamilton Watch co. who used the same plating process in their 1950-70’s watch casings, the golden yellow colour achieved brings warmth and incredible durability to the instrument rivalling the silver plated standard model.
A new barrel design different from the CSG-II, presents wider walls and a shortening of 1.5mm. This creates a deeper tonal colour whilst creating a slightly more resistant playing experience, perfect for allowing you to be in control of the instrument; these features aide the projection and wide dynamic range that this instrument is capable of. With redesigned positioning of the tone holes and bell it has secured intonation and improved the playing experience and expression.
