Yamaha YTS280S Bb tenor saxophone - silver plate

Yamaha’s attention to detail has earned them the trust of millions of students and the respect of professional musicians around the world. Their incomparable blend of craftsmanship and technological innovation enhances the playing experience of every instrument they produce.

The YTS280 Bb tenor saxophone is designed for intermediate players but would also make a reliable first instrument for beginners. It offers a mature sound with superb intonation and comes with some surprisingly advanced features.

A professional style neck receiver ensures a swift response while also increasing the saxophone’s durability, and the lower register is rock solid thanks to a superior B-C# connection mechanism. An adjustable thumb rest accommodates musicians of all ages and helps to encourage proper finger positioning, while the included neck sling spreads the overall weight making the YTS280 a very comfortable instrument to play.

It is finished in a choice of gold lacquer or silver plate and comes equipped with a 4C mouthpiece. Made from high quality phenol resin, the mouthpiece’s design is inspired by the Yamaha Custom series and is frequently recommended by teachers. The outfit is completed with a Yamaha ligature, mouthpiece cap, reed, and a high quality semi-hard case.
