This latest version of the popular YAS-62 benefits from all the expertise and superb manufacturing quality of Yamaha's best artisans. Suitable for a wide variety of playing styles, this latest model features a 62 neck with a slightly narrower bore than the previous model which ensures that the intonation from top to bottom is very controllable and in tune.
The strength of the YAS-62 comes from the core brass used to make it, and the integrated key posts that run down the whole length of the body to join the key pillars to the main tube. These added brass plates offer solidity to both the build and tone. The YAS-62 also features a professional neck receiver meaning players can add on any of the Yamaha Custom necks at a later date and it also benefits from the latest Yamaha advancement to the low B/C# connection to ensure stability of the low notes.
Whether you are working towards grades, playing classical, jazz, swing, funk, or pop, it is hard to go wrong with a YAS-62. It is built to last and with its extremely secure tuning, it is a great step-up or first pro-level instrument for any sax player
