Eb alto saxophone without high F# key from Custom Z series that actually captures the sound and feel of those treasured classic saxes of the past - while adding state-of-the-art intonation and mechanism. Based on the scale of the classic Yamaha ‘62’ models, it features a body made of a special ‘French’ brass alloy for lighter weight, a great playing ‘feel’, and a great tonal flexibility. It plays evenly in all ranges, and provides a huge dynamic range for as much - or as little - sound as wanted. The Custom G1 neck helps produce a quick and agile response, while key action and placement feel just right. The saxophone features a two-piece hydro-formed bell. The body, bell, and bow are annealed during production to make it more responsive and less resistant. The two-piece bell features an eye catching engraving that provides the look of a custom horn. The new mechanisms further allow for faster action and easier repair. The instrument comes with blue steel springs for faster, more sensitive key response and higher resiliency. Other features include yellow brass keys with mother-of-pearl buttons, drawn tone holes, an adjustable plastic thumb hook, waterproof leather and wool felt pads with plastic tone boosters, ribbed and flanged mounting and Yamaha 4CM mouthpiece with yellow brass cap. The saxophone comes equipped with a newly designed lightweight case that has a shoulder strap. Gold Lacquered finish. A Yamaha wind instrument is already idealcompanions on your musical journey.
