Fantastic Yamaha YCL-450 with Superpads.

Used regularly up to grade eight this lovely intermediate instrument is in excellent condition and plays very well indeed. The clarinet has the added benefit of Superpads - Eddie Ashton's amazing UK invention that gives the perfect seal that no other pad can match.

The instrument shows no cracks in the wood and the Silver-plated keys look good and function perfectly. A very good choice for any beginner or intermediate player. The perfect step-up from a plastic clarinet.
