Yamaha YAS-62 Alto Saxophone, Purple Label, Video
Yamaha 62 purple label alto saxophone. Yamaha 62's with the purple label have a fabulous reputation. They have a centered, focused sound that makes them easy to project. The horn feels nimble in response and feel, and is a very fun all-around horn to play.
This is a one-owner horn that recently arrived. Overall, the sax is in excellent condition, and the original lacquer is mostly intact. The sax comes in its original case which is also in good shape. This is a legendary model, and in my opinion, worthy of its reputation.
The sax was just serviced by my repairman prior to sale. He replaced 15 pads and regulated the rest. The horn is playing very well now.
Here is a video of a purple label Yamaha 62 that recently came through our shop. Although it's not the same horn, this should give you a great idea of what this model is capable of.
