Yamaha YAS-62 Eb Alto Saxophone in Lacquer

A modern day classic, the “62” attained the love and respect of a wide range of players for its highly reliable performance and outstanding quality. It owes its success to a group of dedicated designers with great vision and highly skilled craftsmen performing their work with an extraordinary level of devotion, perfection, and passion. 

Integrating the multiple key posts onto a single plate makes the horn blow with moderate resistance while delivering a solid core with deep tone colour. A traditional body shape is adopted which makes the sound brighter and playing feel lighter.

An improved mechanism from low B-C# connection ensures the consistent closing of the low C# key and promotes a clear response from notes in the lower range of the instrument. The professional style neck receiver increases togetherness of the neck and body offering richer tones. The unique tear-drop shaped F key improves playability and is adjustable to players' preferences. The left-hand seesaw key has been designed to increase playability as well as provide a more comfortable feel.

The saxophone includes a 4C mouthpiece and a lightweight durable case which can be conveniently carried by the handle, shoulder strap or backpack-style straps.
