YAMAHA oboe model YOB-831 02 semi-automatic with case

Revised B Key Pad Cup

The B key pad cup has a significant impact on the overall sound of the oboe, and in this model, it has additional thickness while the slot is located at the bottom of the pad. This not only reduces C# noise but also improves playability in the high notes and overall sound. The B-A# trill lever has been adjusted to match the height of the B key for better playing comfort.

Philadelphia D Key Adjustment Screw

This adjustment screw allows precise control of playability in high D. *The "Philadelphia D key" is linked to the low C key and allows adjustment of the double D key opening (in current models, only low C and E keys are linked for opening adjustment).

B Resonance Key

The B resonance key has been included to enhance the sound of the low B. The key can be detached using an adjustment screw if necessary, but the mechanism is designed so that the resonance key always opens when the lowest Bb is played.

Forked F Resonance Key Adjustment Screw

This adjustment screw allows for control of the opening as well as the complete detachment of the auxiliary key if needed.

New Adjustable Thumb Rest

In addition to vertical adjustment, the angle of this thumb rest can be adjusted for the most comfortable fit and position. A strap is also included for a comfortable playing position, enabling the performer to focus more on the music.

New Tone Hole Design

The tone hole has been completely reevaluated and updated to provide ideal breath resistance and luxurious resonance. The redesigned tone holes also make finger maintenance easier.

Deluxe multi-functional case bag (YOB-830L)

Oboists should always carry all kinds of tools and accessories for reed adjustment. The newly designed pockets accommodate almost everything you need for rehearsal. A music score compartment at the back of the case fits A4 sheets vertically. The shoulder strap and handles allow the option of carrying it vertically or horizontally.

• The reed receiver features a new design with greater volume and weight than current models, contributing to richer resonance. The receiver has a slightly looser internal diameter for easier reed insertion.
