Yamaha YOB-431M Oboe
Yamaha YOB-431M Oboe
Intermediate oboe, Body material: Grenadilla, System: Simplified Conservatoire (semi-automatic octave system)
The YOB-432 is also made of top quality grenadilla wood and features a full-automatic octave key system as preferred by Germanic style players. It offers slightly enhanced back-pressure for a broader, richer tone. The intonation is accurate and the response is comfortable and balanced. The key placement and adjustment have been carefully designed for both comfort and to facilitate technique.
Insert Molding
Yamaha is premiering this new technique (patent pending) to bring a reasonable solution to the intermediate family. The upper joint body is drilled out slightly larger around the bore and tone-holes. Thermoplastic ABS resin is injected into the cavity, instantly forming the inner shape of an oboe. It is designed to preserve as much as 90% of the wooden portion, while its natural appearance is hardly distinguishable from conventional all-wooden models.Tone Holes
Upper-joint tone holes (except metal octave vents) are molded simultaneously with the resin bore.Joint Tenon
The upper joint tenon is also formed as an extension to the resin bore. This ensures smooth connection between the joints even under moist conditions.Specifications
