Description
Already a legend, the Yamaha YTS-62 Tenor Saxophone
(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. It is characterised by a very
expressive tone, comfortable playability and extremely
accurate intonation. One notable improvement on previous models is the
new neck which gives a better response and more playing flexibility. The
entire body has also been annealed for a rich resonant sound. It also
features a professional neck receiver meaning players can add on
any of the Yamaha Custom necks at a later date, perhaps for example
adding a V1 which comes with the 82Z series would give the YTS-62 a
bigger, brighter sound for a more experienced player.

The
new 62 is a modernised and improved version of Yamaha’s Classic 62
Series Sax, the
instrument that revolutionized the world of the saxophone, becoming the
first serious challenge to the famous instruments of the past such as
the Mark VI. What makes the Yamaha 62 so special is that it is very much
designed as a blank canvas. The 62 lets the player take the lead and
can be put to work in pretty
much any context. From rock to classical, it responds well right across
the board. Anyone who’s finding themselves held back by their student
instrument, or a more advanced player looking for a great professional
level sax on a
budget, they should definitely consider a 62 as their next step forward.
