Anonymous Published on 12/08/09 at 02:46 (This content has been automatically translated from French)I've had six months (in time).
purchased 300 Euros for a player classic
I had a Yanaghisawa (used) and too tired and too expensive to rehabilitate, but its still good to get started.
My son in a REF 54 Selmer but it is the top.
The YAM behaves TB mode ROCK and I use it for elsewhere because of the sound is quite loud and sounds good for the scene.
It is accurate like a Selmer (so says my filsqui a TB level)
I advice for small players (2nd instrument) who do not seek the inaccuracies on the details of sound.
At 300 euros a case and I do not regret that choice I will ever be.Read moreI've had six months (in time).

moosersPublished on 07/28/10 at 16:54The Yamaha YAS-23 is a standard alto saxophone. It's a beginner - intermediate level saxophone, although it's definitely a high quality one. The YAS-23 has a very study build and feels very secure in your hands. It's body is made out of lacquer, while the keys are nickel plated. I'm definitely not a saxophone expert by any stretch of the imagination, as I'm just starting to pick up the saxophone a bit. I inherited the YAS-23 from my grandfather who recently passed away and I'm just starting to get into it a bit.

For a beginner, I'm finding it pretty easy to adjust to the YAS-23, as it feels good to play and isn't very difficult to get a handle on. I used to play the clarinet, so this is a pretty easy transition as far as getting a sound out of the instrument go. I can't speak to how the sound of the YAS-23 would be if a professional were playing it (which would undoubtedly be a lot better than me playing it), but while I'm playing it I'm getting a pretty full sound out of it. I've yet to do any recording with the YAS-23, but I'm pretty confident that the sound will translate well, and hopefully after a couple of years of playing I'll be able to get some stuff to tape. I've read that the YAS-23 is a great student instrument, which I'm sure it is, but it seems to me like it's a great overall instrument for more than just a beginner. The price is very reasonable for a saxophone like this, as Yamaha is able to afford making high quality instruments at these kind of prices since they are the largest musical instrument manufacturer in the world.
