Yamaha YAS-26 Standard Alto Saxophone Lacquer with Nickel Keys

The YAS-26 combines state-of-the-art production expertise with design elements of Yamaha professional and custom saxophones. The result is an entry-level instrument that delivers the response, intonation and tone needed to help developing musicians achieve success. New features include an improved Low B-C# connection. Pro features combined with legendary Yamaha durability make this new saxophone a great choice to start your musical journey.

A redesigned neck receiver promotes a quick response and ease of play while also increasing the durability of the mechanism. All Yamaha saxophones feature an adjustable thumb-rest to allow for precise and comfortable hand and fingering position. An improved mechanism from low B-C# ensures the consistent closing of the low C# key and promotes a clear response from notes in the low range of the instrument.
