Yamaha YAS-82ZUL WOF Alto Saxophone - Professional
This YAS-82ZUL WOF is the newest Sax to the Yamaha pro custom stable. With reference to designs of the past Yamaha have removed the top F# key and tonehole. This is now done by a couple of manufacturers and the desired goal is to remove resistance and wind turbulence at the top of the tube, giving a more positive feel and response, it certainly plays differently to the standard Z.
Based on the scale of the classic 62 models, the new Custom Z saxes have bodies that are made of a special brass alloy for lighter weight, a great playing feel, and the kind of tonal flexibility you have always dreamed of.
The Z plays evenly in all ranges, and gives you a huge dynamic range for as much - or as little - sound as you want. The Custom G1 neck helps produce a quick and agile response, while key action and placement feel just right.
You can create whatever style tone you are after, from vintage to contemporary, and there is no need to sacrifice comfort for sound. These horns literally have it all.
Unlacquered finish, custom jazz model, engraved, new G1 crook, angled low Bb key for comfort, 2 point bell fixing brace, less resistance, adjustable thumbrest, supplied in a new design lightweight case.
