Class:
Description Brand: Yanagisawa Type: Alto
For sale here is my much loved Yanagisawa 901 Alto saxophone. (Brass lacquer) Yanagisawa are known for producing the best saxophones. This one is no exception. In great working order with good pads & two mouthpieces. (original plastic Yanagisawa mouthpiece and an extra shark bite metal mouthpiece that offers a slightly different sound, originally costing £54) I took this into a local music store to be valued recently and they estimated that it would sell for £1300, however I am only selling due to the fact that I urgently need the money to send to my father to help with a court case abroad. I am actually gutted to have to let this go, however my fathers wellbeing is (slightly) more important to me than this machine. I'm selling on eBay as I was told I would probably achieve a faster sale than in the store, hence the discounted price. This machine has been regularly serviced and looked after throughout its life, however I have not serviced prior to sale. I cannot see anything major that would need doing if anything. Please feel free to come and look / play the machine before buying. This really is a bargain, you only have to look at what similar machines are going for on eBay to realise how much money you are saving. Comes with a fantastic leather case & couple of unused mouthpiece stickers + a neck strap. Just to be absolutely clear here is a list of all the imperfections I could find so there is no surprises after sale. -the lacquer has the odd bleaching marks in areas where it is commonly found on used saxophones (solder points & Yanagisawa logo etc..) these are only small blemishes and hardly noticeable from a distance, please see photos. These do not affect the playing at all. -The machine has one or two very small knocks at the bottom. These do not affect the sound at all and again are hardly noticeable at all without looking for them. Any questions please just message me or text 07791004753, Many thanks, Rory
