Start your budding musician off on the right foot with the Yamaha YTS-26.Designed for the developing saxophonist Taking its cues from Yamaha’s esteemed professional saxophones, the YTS-26 delivers the responsiveness, precise intonation, and solid tonal core required to help developing saxophonists attain success. The YTS-26 is equipped with features commonly found on more expensive saxophones, such as a removable neck and a sturdy neck receiver. Yamaha’s excellent Standard Series neck sports a slightly narrower bore taper that promotes quick response and greater control, focusing notes and providing a more compact landing zone for intonation.Responsive and easy to play The YTS-26's post-to-body construction also contributes to the horn’s ready response while allowing for lighter overall weight. With less initial wind resistance, the YTS-26 resonates more immediately as compared with heavier ribbed-construction saxophones that generally require more effort from the player. While Yamaha’s immaculate keywork fosters proper fingering technique, the instrument is also fitted with an improved low B–C# linkage to facilitate smooth low-register note transitions. The YTS-26 comes with Yamaha’s high-quality 4C mouthpiece and yellow brass ligature, as well as a durable case. Factor in Yamaha’s legendary build quality, and the YTS-26 is the perfect starting point for any saxophonist’s musical journey.Yamaha saxophones: designed and built for artists In 1967, Yamaha debuted their first saxophones: the YAS-1 alto and the YTS-1 tenor. Both found favor in the sax player community. In fact, jazz great John Coltrane, who built his reputation on the tenor and soprano, played the prototype YAS-1 gifted him by Yamaha extensively during his 1966 tour of Japan. In 1972, Yamaha partnered with renowned classical saxophonist Dr. Eugene Rousseau to develop a new line of professional-class saxophones. After arduous years of prototyping, testing, and revisions, Yamaha introduced the fruits of their labor: the YAS-62 alto, YTS-62 tenor, and the YSS-62 soprano. Designed with three guiding principles in mind — superior acoustics, top-notch mechanisms, and artistic feel — the 62 series saxophones represented a milestone for Yamaha, setting the company on the path to becoming one of the world’s most-respected saxophone makers.A solid investment for a promising musical future Today, Yamaha continues to adhere to the principles established during the creation of the original 62 series nearly a half century ago, providing saxophonists with fine instruments to inspire their artistry and meet their technical demands.
