YAMAHA Bb Professional Clarinet Model YCL651 Made of Grenadilla No cracks or repairs Serial number 007××× Superb condition Accessories YAMAHA genuine hard case Genuine case cover with strap YAMAHA genuine mouthpiece Genuine ligature YAMAHA genuine cap YCL651 The professional model clarinet that the world's YAMAHA first challenged. A culmination of significant capital investment and Japanese technological prowess. The YCL62, the predecessor to this YCL651, was the main clarinet used by Buddy DeFranco, the greatest jazz clarinetist of this century. The YCL651 is its successor (¥291,500 at the time of release) Due to the narrow inner diameter and YAMAHA's technical capabilities: 1. Overwhelming responsiveness. 2. Stable quality due to precise design and manufacturing. 3. Accurate intonation and flexible balance. 4. Resistance to withstand strong playing and a bright, vibrant, rich tone. 5. Durable design that can withstand heavy use. I understand why DeFranco chose it. About maintenance. 1. Body tone hole cleaning and oiling. 2. Complete replacement of necessary pads. 3. Spring cork inspection and partial replacement. 4. Key distortion correction and polishing. 5. Pad gap adjustment. 6. Ring height adjustment. 7. F1 (upper and lower joint connection) adjustment. 8. Lower joint CB connection adjustment. 9. Overall balance adjustment, fine-tuning. 10. Replacement of thumb rest with a movable type. 11. Test playing and confirmation of all ranges. The adjustments are perfectly finished. The overwhelming responsiveness is still intact. I feel joy overflowing with a bright and vibrant tone. Extremely resonant! I am a clarinetist with 57 years of professional experience, but not a repairman. I learned本格的に from a Buffet Crampon technician when I was young. I am also asked to make adjustments by my fellow professional musicians. After retiring from the orchestra, I performed in Berlin and New York. I have held numerous solo concerts and released three CDs, and the recordings and broadcasts I have participated in are countless. The fourth corner of my clarinet life! I hope to be of service to enthusiasts. It plays incredibly well. Extended high notes, transparent mid-range, flexible low range! Energetic and vibrant, it's the best! Includes the attached YAMAHA genuine mouthpiece! Perfect for club activities. I highly recommend it with confidence. Thank you for viewing.
