WTB 875 tenor
by WTB GOLD LACQUER YTS 875 TENOR
Looking for a gold lacquer tenor 875 custom by yamaha.
thanks
The newest Yamaha is the YAS275 (not the YAS25). The 275 is altogether better made than most 'student' saxes, and has had good reviews.
No its a Yamaha YAS-875 black lacquer but now plays on a gold one went to school with him at berklee used to shed alot together
...its serial number it can be said that it was made reasonably recent and it probably was manufactured by a Yamaha factory outside of France for Vito ...
...ofessionally, you need a proper horn and not one that is Made in China. I would always stress and suggest Yamaha YAS-23 horns. Amazing horns for great value. ...
...tried Borgani saxophones. I'm interested in buying a new Tenor. How does it stack up to a Series II, Yamaha Custom?? Any input is appreciated....
just look at what kind of prices are being asked for on ebay, i had a yamaha student model which was about 5-6 years old and i sold it four about $400
