Product information

Product no: 9000-0123-0267

General

Adorned with a hand-engraved bell and outfitted with a versatile octave key system, Yamaha's YAS-480 alto saxophone boasts some of the same features as some of its professional siblings, making it a brilliant choice for up-and-coming sax players. The 62-style neck ensures improved tone and response, and can be swapped out for a Custom Z or Custom EX neck (none included) thanks to the redesigned octave key system.

The YAS-480: Bright Sound & Comfortable Playing Feel

The individual key guards feature adjustable screw cap stoppers for pro-grade adjustments, while the improved B-C# connection helps ensure consistent closing of the low C# key for a clear response in the lower registers. At the same time, the left-hand seesaw mechanism has been designed to boost playability as well as the playing comfort, finishing a superb and classy Eb saxophone.

Bax Music Warranty This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

Yamaha YAS-480 Eb Alto Saxophone with Semi-hard Case

A great saxophone at an amazing price, especially when using the EXTRA11 discount too. It's going to be very useful for covering the times when I do not want to take my Custom EX to a performance.
