Yamaha YSS-82ZB Custom Z Soprano Saxophone - Black Lacquer

Based on the scale and design of the classic '62' models, 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've always dreamed of. The Z plays evenly in all ranges, and gives the player a huge dynamic range for as much - or as little - sound as you want. The Custom Z saxes have unparalleled tonal flexibility for confident performance in all styles of music, and there's no need to sacrifice comfort for sound. YSS-82Z is available with a straight neck, while YSS-82ZR has a curved neck.

The one-piece neck without any joints between the body and the neck provides a free and even response. YSS-82Z is available with a straight neck, which provides clearness and brightness to the sound.

Key layout is designed to fit to humans' hands. This helps players concentrate on their performance without feeling stress.

This style of key posts adds a moderate resistance and makes the instrument sound as you blow into it.

Crafsmen shape the bell from a sheet of brass with a hammer. This adds a unity to the body and makes the intonation in middle to lower range smoother. It also has a solid tone.
