YAMAHA YOB-431M Duet Oboe
Yamaha have made their oboes capable of producing clear sound and exceptional intonation, and have done so by greatly improving the accuracy and stability of the bore.
In addition, in order to solve the various quality problems inherent in any woodwind instrument, the Duet+ models employ a series of innovative techniques whose objective is to create a protective layer next to the air column.
The combination of noble woods and avant-garde resins is not a mere duet of tradition and technology but also constitutes an added advantage.
