The ideal first clarinet – rugged, great-sounding and easy to care for

The Yamaha YCL-255S is the natural successor to the popular YCL-250 and is designed for beginners who want a reliable, good-sounding instrument from day one. This Bb clarinet with Boehm system combines renowned Yamaha build quality with a low-maintenance, weather-resistant body – perfect for music school, orchestra rehearsal or practising at home.

Warm tone thanks to a thoughtfully designed ABS body

The body, barrel and bell are made from matte ABS resin with a convincing wood-grain look. The material produces a warm, resonant tone that rivals classic wooden clarinets – while staying unaffected by changes in temperature and humidity: the YCL-255S won't warp or crack, even with frequent changes of environment.

Precise Boehm mechanism with thoughtful ergonomics

The 17-key, 6-ring Boehm mechanism in silver-plated nickel silver delivers smooth, precise response. The newly designed, adjustable thumb rest with strap ring adapts to the individual player – making it especially comfortable for musicians with smaller hands to hold the instrument relaxed during longer practice sessions.

Fine details for tone and durability

Straight tone holes with tapered undercut support a focused, clear tone across the full register. Synthetic pads with stainless steel springs provide a tight, consistently reliable seal on the keys. The slim bell without a metal ring also noticeably reduces the instrument's weight.
