Yamaha Low C Bass Clarinet – YCL-622II
2nd Generation Design | Grenadilla Wood Body | Handcrafted in Japan
Low C Bass Clarinets are instruments that require exceptional attention to detail in order to produce well. Unfortunately, they are also very expensive to manufacture due to the sheer size of the instrument and the lower production quantities due to their cost. In the case of the Yamaha Low C Bass Clarinet, Yamaha has been able to provide a perfect balance of performance & affordability. The new 2nd Generation YCL-622II replaced the original YCL-622 in 2008. With improved mechanism & overall performance, the new 622II Yamaha Low C Bass Clarinet offers an unmatched value in the major manufacturers.
Additional Information
Professionally Setup
Every Yamaha low C bass clarinet we send out to a customer is not released from us unless it has been completely setup in our Official Yamaha Select Dealer shop. This is because the setup on any low C bass clarinet is of the utmost importance! Sometimes, a clarinet (regardless of who the manufacturer or the price point is) comes in needing 20 minutes of adjustments and then the very next one can require 2 hours!
This is why we perform our setup (in our www.ClarinetRepairs.com ProShop) on your clarinet before delivering it to you. You trust us with your purchase and we want to make sure that you are rewarded by giving you your new low C bass clarinet setup flawlessly!

Very well made beautiful bass clarinet. Very even tone/response in all registers. Not the most resonant or loudest bass clarinet. I use a fobes 10k rr blue for more power, Tuned to A442. Neck must be pulled out at least 3/8”. I use 1.5mm selmer fobes tuning rings in midjoint. Some have called the tone bland compared to selmer and buffet basses. I think it sounds very pure and focused.
