YAS-62IIIU Professional Alto Saxophone (Un-lacquered Finish)

The YAS-62IIIU is the newest addition to the renowned line of professional Yamaha saxophones. The un-lacquered finish not only adds a touch of old charm to the look, but it also helps the instrument resonate with a vibrant, rich sound reminiscent of classic vintage saxophones.

The legendary YAS-62IIIU professional saxophone has evolved to suit the needs of any player from the rising student to the seasoned pro.

A favorite among band directors for decades, the 62 model saxophones (and their predecessor, the 61) have redefined the market by offering superior quality and durability at an affordable price.. 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.
