Yamaha YTS-480 Tenor Saxophone – yellow brass in gold lacquer, high-F# key & front-F (4C mouthpiece & case included)

Your next step on the tenor saxophone – Yamaha YTS-480

The Yamaha YTS-480 is the tenor saxophone for players who have outgrown their first years and are now looking for an instrument with real substance. As an intermediate model from Yamaha, it combines the reliable ergonomics of a student horn with build details usually found only in higher classes – ideal for ambitious students, music teachers and returning players who want expression and dependability in equal measure.

Warm, projecting tone from yellow brass

Body, neck and bell are made of yellow brass, delivering the characteristically warm, round tenor tone with plenty of core. The two-piece bell and hand-applied engraving underline the quality of the build. The baked gold lacquer protects the metal and gives the sound a pleasing warmth and brilliance.

Precise mechanism for effortless playing

The 480-style neck responds cleanly across every register. The high F# key and front F mechanism extend your range and make fast runs in the upper register easier. The adjustable thumb hook adapts to your hand, and the waterproof leather pads with resonators seal reliably – for precise response over many years.

Your benefits at a glance:

• Full tenor tone: yellow brass body for a warm, projecting sound with core.
• Extended range: high F# key and front F for more freedom in the upper register.
• Reliable response: waterproof leather pads with resonators, precise Yamaha mechanism.
• Quality build: hand engraving, two-piece bell and baked gold lacquer.
• Ready to play: Yamaha 4C mouthpiece and case included.
