All user reviews of 4/5 for the Yamaha YAS-275

The Yamaha Alto YAS275 sax is the base lower end model of the Yamaha alto sax line that they have come out with. This is pretty much what you call the young person sax or the student sax. A lot of younger kids in middle school and when they first start out in band start with using this sax. But since it’s the base model many people tend to think that it lacks playability or that it’s a weaker model and that isn’t true at all. The Yamaha Alto YSS275 when played sounds like a top of the line alto sax. Its sound is one of a kind and for the price of this sax you can beat it.
Almost all school systems have an option with a musical instrument company that you can rent or purchase this sax. So keep an eye out for the brand name because if a you are looking for a sax this model / brand will come up in the conversation this model has been around for a long time and will continue to be around for a long time with the quality that it produces. With the Yamaha YAS275 being played in Eb and coming in a gold finish you just cant beat it. Most of them when you purchase or rent will come with a solid case as well that will protect your instrument from any damage. You can also purchase your own mouthpiece to go with it, but if you’re a beginner make sure you get a beginners mouth piece so you will be able to understand the instrument and learn to play. Overall the Yamaha YAS275 is a great instrument and a great buy at an affordable price that any parent, musician or student can afford. There are no other models buy Yamaha that are cheaper in price but great in quality!

I use this saxophone for 8 years now, I switched to the tenor of the professional but I have yet to change the budget for this one.

I tried many other saxophones including Mark 6 and other top sax lines and the big difference between these saxophones and a 3000 € to 1000 € mine lies in the "strength "the saxophone with the Yamaha it seems to have a saxophone a bit" empty ", which is felt elsewhere in the bass tend to sound hollow, the other sax give a better impression of solidity.

What I like most about this sax is his relative speed of play, but after that depends on a sax to another, another point is that it's been 8 years since I and I ' I never had big problems with, just re-buffer again.

In conclusion, this saxophone has a value great price even though there may be better at Stagg for example, but this sax is a great value and is an instrument entirely correct.
