 Crack in Yamaha clarinet 450
Author: fitbafan

Hi everyone,

New to forum, this is my first post.

Have a Yamaha 450 which has a hairline crack in upper joint.

It was bought from new about 14 months ago so have returned it to the dealer to return to Yamaha (has a 2 year warranty).

Just wondering whether you think Yamaha will replace or repair it.

Regards.

If the surface of the timber has the black dye on/in it, and they fill/glue the crack, then re-paint on the dye to hide the glue, then you possibly will not know either way. :-)

Unless the serial number on a new joint is different....  :)

Unless the replacement joint is only serial-numbered when fitted.

Or is more likely to be the joint without a serial number.

The opinions I express are my own.

That's exactly what I meant by "unless"  :)
