Yamaha 82Z Alto Saxophone Unlacquered Mint Condition! YAS-82ZU
Yamaha Custom 82Z alto saxophone, unlacquered. This is my favorite version of the 82Z, as they seem to have a bit of extra depth and complexity to the sound. This one is no different, and it plays amazingly well top to bottom. This horn is in mint condition. There are no scratches or dents, and the pads are in like new condition and sealing perfectly. This is a one-owner horn and I can say with confidence that it was used very little, given the state of the finish. Take a look around my website (dcsax.com), and you can see many other examples of unlacquered 82z's, and you won't find one like this. There is a fair amount of oxidation to the finish on this horn, but it still has the shiny look of a relatively new 82Z (from what I'm told, it takes about 6 months or less of regular playing before a brand new looking horn looks completely tarnished). The new owner will therefore enjoy the quick transformation of the finish. This horn is a treat to play, and a truly world class saxophone.
