The Yamaha YTS-280 Bb tenor saxophone offers you the perfect start or upgrade because it is designed with the beginner in mind. 

It can complete the grades with ease and is a very reliable, and affordable, choice for doublers looking for good quality on a budget. 

Relatively light-weight and ergonomically shaped, for a tenor, you will find it relatively easy to hold and to play.

The Yamaha design offers beginners optimum support, thus greatly assisting both learning progress and creativity.

Based on the highly recommended YTS-275 saxophones the new YTS-280 has been even further enhanced with a new, more stable neck receiver and a new low B-C# connection for better adjustment.

A great sounding Sax as a big step up after first 6 lessons, well worth the investment to encourage me to keep learning.

''BUY ONE''

WELL WHAT A LOVELY SUPRISE ! FOLLOWING A REVIEW ON A 280 ALTO, ANOTHER STUDENT GAVE ME THE LOAN OF HIS 280 TENOR. NOW THEN, I GAVE UP PLAYING TENOR A FEW MONTHE AGO WHEN I STOPPED TOURING AND STUCK TO MY 82Z ALTO, UNTIL THIS BABY CAME ALONG.
USING MY OLD 7*OTTO LINK TONE EDGE, AND ZZ REEDS, THE 280 TENOR GAVE ME EVERYTHING I WANTED FROM IT.
DO'NT GET ME WRONG, I LOVED MY 82Z TENOR BUT THIS YTS 280 HAS REALLY IMPRESSED ME.
N.B THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A PROFESSIONAL SAXOPHONE, SO WHATEVER YOUR LEVEL, GIVE A LOT OF THOUGHT TO A YTS 280
AND IF YOU ARE ON A BUDGET YOU CAN'T GO MUCH WRONG NEITHER.

Excellent

Bought for my son who says it is brilliant. I play trumpet so can't offer a detailed review but it sounds excellent when he plays. Amazingly quick delivery, ordered on a Monday after close of business and arrived Wednesday lunchtime!
