YAMAHA ALTO Saxophone YAS-480 / YAS 480 / YAS480

The YAS-480 alto saxophone is one step ahead. With a little more resistance, it has an authoritative sound, but a great flexibility due to the separated key guards.

The Yamaha YAS-480 succeeds its incredibly popular predecessor, the YAS-475. Based on the YAS-475 saxophone, the YAS-480 is even further enhanced with a new low B-C# connection for better adjustment and a new octave system from the 62 series that facilitates the use of custom necks. This means you can alter the sound of the YAS-480 by changing the neck to a custom Yamaha model.
