Unrivaled Tone and Craftsmanship - The Yanagisawa AW02 Professional Alto Saxophone - Bronze

The upgraded replacement for the legendary A902 series, this AWO2 bronze model is suited just as well to aspiring beginners as to experienced professionals. It has a strong tonal core thanks to a re-engineered bore and toneholes, plus many upgraded features exclusive to the WO series such as newly designed Front F Keys, Ride Side Keys and Right Pinky Key.

• Octave system: Both ends of the octave key axis rotate in a receptacle that is coated to insure a smooth operation every time
• Rocking table mechanism: The C# and Bb keys have a rocking table mechanism that allows for optimal speed and fluidity between these pitches
• F-auxiliary key mechanism: Insures a proper seal of the pads when playing in the low range of the saxophone
• "Indented" white shell keys: A player's fingers will rest comfortably in the indented white shell keys. The white shells also enhance the beauty of the instrument while also preventing the player's fingers from slipping during technical passages
• Pointed pivot screw: The pivot screws that are used have a pointed end which facilitates an accurate center and precise action
• Air-tight waterproof pad: The pads are completely air-tight which supports stability in playing and their life is extended thanks to being waterproof
• Blue steel springs: Blue steel springs give the player quick response and are much more resilient than stainless steel (they also last much longer)
• Tri-point balanced bell brace: The bell and the body of the saxophone are firm connected by a tri-point balanced bell brace
