for those with the mid-high range sax, this is a great value backupĤ. Overall after having only one full band rehearsal with it, playing a wide variety of music types that night, the response was great.ģ.

There is a convex swelling of it in the direction of the outter case-longh zipped pouch area, which results in reduced capacity.įor the value of it too their should be better branded and quality reeds included, but thats just me. I also have a vandoren metal mouthpiece on the way I hope to try out.Ĭons : I think my main and only gripe has to be the case.

The included mouthpiece is actually pretty decent, though I also switch back to my selmer C* and tested with both using my B&G ligature and no.3 reeds. note: dont forget to lookfor all the shippping cork wedges, theres a few hidden around the back I did not see at first look ,lol. The YTS62 MK II key mechanism feels great, and very responsive, no sticking or delays. Introduced in 1979, the YAS-62 and YTS-62 saxophones withstand the tests of time and competition and have been in a continual state of improvement since the launch of the YAS-61 in 1969. It was the DHL transport time that killed me, I just really wanted it fast, lol, could not wait. While not the quickest usually at dispatching Thomann this time around did manage to do so by 20-24 hours after sending SEPA transfer. In the end after seeing several video reviews and deciding I was not going to settle for an expensive student model, I really wanted to stay mid range. The current pricing for tenors of the same caliber is just crazy in euros, rip-off city, hence my caution at just buying another of the same 2 brands or similar, after seeing the pricing at 3-6k euros. I previously used a selmer paris SA80 black finish, then a Bauhaus Walstein TS pro silver I spent a long time reviewing, reviews, youtube videos, etc. Great value, forget those 2500-6000, this is all you need.
