The Yamaha YOB241 oboe features an ABS resin body oboe making it lighter weight for beginners. The precise intonation allows students to focus more on developing their own musical sound and style. But there is nothing 'student-like' about the rich and colourful sound. The 241 features a characteristically warm oboe tone which sounds very close to that of a professional wooden instrument, so even a complete beginner will quickly develop a beautiful tone.
The YOB241B-30 is specifically designed for the UK and features a thumbplate and a low Bb Key on the bell.
The Yamaha YOB241 offers the beginner a fantastic instrument to begin playing music on. Featuring a typically UK thumbplate system on an ABS resin body, this instrument is recommended by UK teachers and is very easy to maintain while still maintaining a fantastic sound and feel.
