This is a MINT Yamaha YCR-8620IIS Neo Eb Soprano cornet. The YCR-8620IIS the latest iteration of the Eb soprano cornet, and is an extraordinary instrument.First of all Yamaha makes the only Eb cornet I've ever seen that reliably plays in TUNE! Even in the upper register the intonation of this instrument is unsurppased. The tone quality is brilliant without being harsh and the instrument has the kind of ease and responsiveness that a solo cornet player will expect.. This one is in absolute mint condition. Except for a day of performing at a local brass band festival it has not been played and is absolutely mint except for some fingerprints. Silver is perfect valves are perfect everything is absolutely perfect. If you're looking for a perfect Eb cornet at a perfect price look no further-here is it!
