The YTS-62 is a perfect up-grade from a student sax, or a great versatile horn for a professional player. One step below Yamaha's Custom models, the YTS-62 represents great value for money as it shares many of the characteristics of the top designs, yet is available at a much lower price point. For those players who are looking to upgrade to a higher level model, the YTS-62 should be a serious consideration!
This instrument has long represented a benchmark for entry level pro horns, now available with silver plating.
This is a great all-round saxophone, responding well right across the board, whether you play classical, rock, jazz, funk, pop or anything in between. The brass body is left unlacquered and plated with a beautiful, bright silver plating. The absence of lacquer means that occasional cleaning with a silver polishing cloth is required to maintain its finish, although many musicians prefer the gradual formation of the patina which develops over time. The added layer of precious metal gives an added resonance, projection and extra dimension to the sound.
