Pre-Owned Yamaha YAS-62 Professional Alto Saxophone (G1 Neck) - Gold Lacquer
For sale is an absolute industry standard: a Pre-Owned Yamaha YAS-62 Professional Alto Saxophone, serial number D47716. The Yamaha 62 series is arguably the most trusted and widely played professional saxophone on the planet, famous for its rock-solid intonation, ergonomic perfection, and highly versatile tone.
This specific instrument is a Generation II model featuring the highly desirable Yamaha G1 Neck, and it comes to us in absolutely breathtaking, Like-New Condition. If you have been looking to upgrade to a world-class professional Yamaha but don't want to pay the $4,300+ brand-new price tag, this is your perfect horn.
This is a great saxophone for the advancing high school student, collegiate music major, or gigging professional. The YAS-62 is famously a "chameleon" horn. With a classical mouthpiece, it produces a warm, focused, and beautifully blended tone perfect for concert band or quartet work. Throw a jazz mouthpiece on it, and it instantly transforms into a punchy, resonant, and colorful lead horn.
- The G1 Neck: This is a cool upgrade! The custom-style G1 neck features a slightly wider bore taper, which significantly improves projection, frees up the blowing resistance, and makes the altissimo register incredibly responsive.
- Integrated Key Posts: Integrating the multiple key posts onto a single plate makes the horn blow with a very comfortable, moderate resistance while delivering a solid core with deep tone color.
- Legendary Yamaha Intonation: Yamaha is universally recognized for having the best intonation of any modern saxophone manufacturer. The YAS-62 slots across all registers, taking the guesswork out of tuning.
- Annealed Brass & Hand Engraving: The brass is acoustically annealed for optimal resonance, and the bell features a beautiful, traditional hand-engraved floral pattern.
