[Features]
The YCL-CSVmaster is the upper model of Yamaha's Custom CS series. The CS series is known for a clear, centered tone and excellent projection from a near-straight bore design - it responds fully to the air you put in and carries the sound straight and far, with a soloistic character.

The CSVmaster's barrel bore combines a narrow taper with a straight section for both a solid core and natural response. Features such as raised C#/G# tone holes keep the sound from spreading even when blown hard, giving stable response and rich expression from low to high register.

In Japan, the SE series is often chosen by players who favor softness and blend, while the CS series shines for players who want a defined outline and to actively shape their sound with their own air. Brilliant and powerful, yet not merely bright - it keeps its core when pushed.

This unit is a 2018 1st-generation model. Aside from partial wear on the barrel and upper joint logos, the body has no cracks or repair history, and it has been overhauled with all-leather pads and new corks.

Accessories: original hard case, case cover, mouthpiece (4CM, with cloudy white discoloration)
