This is a GREAT Yamaha YEP-642 professional compensating euphonium. The Yamaha professional euphoniums have fantastic playing characteristics. They have a beautiful, soloistic tone quality, great intonation through all registers, and even response. This particular one is in very good condition. The lacquer is excellent, being 95% present with very minor wear. There are a couple of minor dings but no major dents. Valves are terrifc and this horn plays great! Pics tell the rest of the story. Please feel free to email with additional questions. Bid early, bid often!!!
