Yamaha YAS-875 Custom Alto Saxophone

99GenX · 07-04-2008, 01:04 AM

The "Custom" is at the top of the Yamaha sax line. Beautiful engraving coupled with the highest level of workmanship. Comfortable keyboard layout that is reminiscent of a Mark VI. This horn has the response and projection you would expect from a top of the line sax. Comes with case and mouthpiece.

Need I say more? Anybody interested in a horn of this quality is surely familiar with the quality of the 8-- series Yamaha's.

Sax is in great shape with only minor scratches and wear from light play over the years.

SKB flight case, vintage Meyer jazz mouthpiece, and 1950's Selmer D mouthpiece also available.

This saxophone retailed for right under $6000 approximately 4 years ago and although discontinued, still carries a price tag of well over $3000 on most online stores. I am asking $2,700 OBO. Trades for paintball gear, motorcycle/scooters, televisions, video game platforms, etc. will be considered. Other musical instruments will be considered as well (including other saxophones).

It's a nice horn for a good price. If my wife hadn't just picked up a Selmer, I'd consider this. Good luck with the sale!

It's brass? You can solder it to a KP!
