All our Yamaha necks are genuine and ordered directly from Yamaha Los Angeles.
Yamaha's New Design Retro Gold Lacquer Pro Alto Saxophone Neck:
****These Yamaha necks are designed to fit the current Yamaha advanced Saxophones, if you have a vintage 62, please let us know so we can either place the correct octave key on the neck, or you can purchase the Yamaha made adapter ($38) to convert your 1st Gen YAS-62 to take any and all the newer Yamaha necks.
Don't let the low price influence you, we have sold these new style Yamaha necks to some of the top players all over the world...and who purchased in quantity.
Yamaha has taken the design of these new pro gold lacquer alto necks from the exact original body of their 1979 YAS-62 necks.
**Please be aware, Yamaha professional products very rarely fit any other brand. The outer diameter of the Yamaha alto sax neck insert is 24.5MM, the outer diameter of the Yamaha tenor neck insert is 27.5MM.

*****In a recurring phenomena, another sax professional purchased the tenor version of this neck, and 5 days after receiving, bought out our entire tenor stock...then later added a few alto neck. And this one of America's Grammy award winning saxophonists. The only comment we can get from them is..."it improves everything!"
"I got the retro YTS-62 tenor neck for my purple logo YTS-62 and it was a game changer...and just got back my minty purple logo YAS-62 and it really sings with the new neck (retro YAS-62S)" W.F. Altamonte, FL
