Description from Yamaha:
“This economical ABS resin body oboe features a simplified Conservatoire system, making it is easier to play 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 241B 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 (standard European version shown in picture without Bb Key).”
