Yamaha YAS23 Alto Saxophone

Adjustable thumb rest
All Yamaha saxophones feature an adjustable thumb rest to allow for precise and comfortable hand and fingering position.

Refined key shape and dimension
Yamaha saxophone keys are not simply shaped and positioned according to mechanical necessity; the entire system is designed from the player's perspective, with emphasis on comfort, speed, and overall playability. The natural feel of the keys eliminates the need to adapt to an unnatural or uncomfortable key layout.

Adjustable key guard felts

Excellent Instrument

Our school owns twenty of these for beginning band (4th through 6th grade). An excellent, solid instrument and a real workhorse. Plywood cases will stack to the ceiling for the summer with no ill effect. All parts are interchangeable. In my experience, the case will become unsightly due to the vinyl covering ripping and coming off long before the sax is dead. Expect to get ten years out of these instruments.

I started playing sax on this instrument. I still use it and enjoy it a lot. If you want to play sax and are looking for a good instrument, this is a great sax to carry you for years. Hey, mine works great after five years!
