Yamaha YAS-82Z-WOF MK3 Custom Alto Sax (Gold Lacquer)

The evolution of the Yamaha Custom Z continues. Powerful sound and the ability to play fast passages without difficulty, the Z is crafted to meet your highest expectations. They have been re-examined from the neck to the bell and are now equipped with a one-piece bell for increased resonance and the highly regarded V1 neck for the optimal combination of response and control.

  The new mechanisms on the 82Z allow for faster action and easier repair.
  

• Blue steel springs
  The 82Z comes with blue steel springs for faster, more sensitive key response and higher resiliency.

  The new 82Z comes equipped with a newly designed lightweight case that has a shoulder strap.
  

• Engraving
  Eye catching engraving will give you the look of a custom horn.
