Introducing the Yamaha YOB241B student oboe outfit

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 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).

What are the different types of oboe?

Thumplate oboes are widely used in the UK as starting instruments. They feature simplified keywork and a narrower bore to make them more accessible for younger players. Dual system oboes have more advanced keywork and generally a bigger bore, and are intended for players of a higher standard doing solo or orchestral work. Conservatoire system oboes are mainly found in Continental Europe and the US, and have a different fingering technique altogether which is also intended for more advanced players.
