Offering a Near Mint Yanagisawa Series 991 Black/Gold Lacquer Alto Sax. In my opinion, Yanagisawa Hand Made Saxophones are the best playing, sounding, in tune, egonomically comfortable saxophones on the planet. 
This alto has a PRO SETUP. Action is super fast.In my 50+ years of playing professional sax, I have owned and played the best horns. I have owned the 880, the 900 and the 901 Yanagisawa. This 991 Black is the best.I recently had the opportunity to play the new Yanni WO Series. I actually thought they sounded stuffy.This one is near perfect. The case has very few marks. I purchased from the original owner. It has been treated with kid gloves. That's it. It is a head turned. The tone is rich with a full body. The action is super fast and fun to play.NOTE: NEVER purchase a musical instrument from someone who is not a player of. This one has a PRO SETUP.  The action is fact and very accurate.  The tone is rich and full bodied. Yanni says play in tune.  The ergonomics of the Yanagisawa are second to non in the saxophone industry.In my 50+ years as a pro sax player I have owned the best saxophones there are. In my opinion, the Yanagisawa saxophones are the BEST on the planet.
I have been playing Yanagisawa for 17 years. Still am.Upgrade to a top of the line PRO HORN for a decent price?
