We have a truly special opportunity for the local saxophone community! This spectacular Yanagisawa T-WO2 Tenor Saxophone is an official demo model from the recent Houston Underground Saxophone Competition. Please note: this is not a heavily used or damaged instrument. It was carefully selected by the manufacturer for display and exclusive play-testing by professional artists during the event. It is fundamentally a brand-new horn, now available to the public at a deeply discounted "open-box" price.
Handcrafted in Japan, Yanagisawa saxophones are globally celebrated for their impeccable intonation, fluid ergonomics, and mechanical perfection. The T-WO2 is a standout in their lineup, offering the perfect balance of a free-blowing response and a deeply colorful, resonant sound.
Yanagisawa T-WO2
-
Solid Bronze Construction: Unlike standard brass horns, the T-WO2 is crafted from bronze. This higher-copper alloy provides a distinctly warmer, richer, and more velvety acoustic core that is highly sought after by both jazz artists and classical soloists.
-
"Lightweight" Design: As part of the Professional series, this horn features single-post-to-body construction rather than heavy ribbing. This makes the instrument incredibly responsive, vibrant, and fast, allowing the bronze to resonate freely at all dynamic levels.
-
Redesigned WO Ergonomics: Yanagisawa is famous for having some of the most comfortable keywork in the industry. The WO series introduces newly designed Front F, Right Side, and Right Pinky keys for effortless, lightning-fast transitions.
-
Premium Mechanics: Featuring pointed pivot screws for exacting precision, blue steel springs for snappy action, and waterproof pads for an airtight seal that lasts.
Condition & Playability
-
Cosmetics: Competition Demo / Open Box. This instrument was unboxed and briefly play-tested by elite artists at a major saxophone competition. The clear lacquer over the bronze body is stunning and 100% intact, showing only the most microscopic, virtually imperceptible signs of being handled.
-
Mechanics: Flawless. Even pristine event demos get our full attention. Our in-house repair technicians have carefully benched and regulated this saxophone to ensure the pads seal perfectly and the action is snappy and stage-ready.
-
Accessories: Includes the premium Yanagisawa backpack-style hard case, original Yanagisawa ebonite mouthpiece, ligature, cap, and factory accessories.
