Thanks for checking out my Yamaha YBS-61 Baritone Saxophone listing! This horn has a range to low A. This vintage instrument is in great playing condition. I’ve had a good amount of work done on it over the past few months, including a service just a couple of weeks before listing it. Hard case from photos included. If you’re looking for a pro-level Low A bari sax that has held up very well over the years but for half of the price of newer pro models, even thousands less than some new intermediate models, then this is the horn for you! It has a big and powerful sound and the low end really sings. Yet it is also a very focused sound. The altissimo is also nicely in tune compared to other bari saxes I’ve played. I’ve been gigging on this horn since last September and I really love playing it. However, I no longer have as much use for it and need the funds so I’m looking to pass it along to someone who will play it. Please note that this horn has gone through plenty of wear over the years and there are many signs that it has been well-used. There is lacquer wear, some minor denting especially around the bow and bell, some replaced screws, and several points of resoldering. There is also minor neck pull-down, though it hasn’t affected the playing for me. The low C tone hole is out of round, but the pad is seated to the shape of the tone hole and my repair tech has not found it to be an issue causing any leaking. Also, the thumb rest is plastic, not sure if it is a replacement. Please see the photos for more details and feel free to message me with any questions or concerns.
