Product Information

Yanagisawa 800 series saxes are a much sought-after professional saxophone option, offering fantastic build quality and a beautiful, sweet sound. Yanagisawa have kept the curved soprano relevant in a market filled with straight alternatives. Produced in Japan this 800 series model is around 30 years old, dating from the early 1990’s and is in fabulous condition for its age.

The lacquer is excellent order throughout with only some signs of wear in the lacquer, particularly on the side Bb and the palm keys. The keywork feels precise and fluid under the fingers. This delightful model is supplied with 2 different curved crooks, allowing the player to choose the angle and resistance of the sax.
