Yamaha 480 Series Alto Saxophone

If you are looking to upgrade from your student model alto saxophone or are looking for a quality instrument with a great sound, then the Yamaha 480 Intermediate Alto Saxophone is an excellent choice.

Some features that set the Yamaha 480 Alto Sax apart from other instruments:

• Improved Low B-C# connection: 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.
• Professional Style Neck: This instrument has the 62 style neck which improves tone and response.
• Left-hand seesaw key: The left-hand seesaw key is designed to increase playability as well as provide a more comfortable feel.
• Compatible with Yamaha Custom Necks: With a redesigned octave key, you can upgrade your neck to either Yamaha's Custom Z and EX necks (sold separately) to improve your sound.
• Backpack Style Carrying Case: This semi-hard case makes transporting simple and easy with a handle and shoulder straps.

This saxophone from Yamaha is available in Lacquer and Silver finishes.
