OVERVIEW

This intermediate saxophone is designed to make the step up from your student model smooth and enjoyable. The 480 have many of the same features found on our professional saxophones that provide these intermediate saxophones with greater playability and optimum tone. These are instruments that bring out the best of the performer and ideal choice for up and coming players.

 

Hand engraving

A hand-engraved pattern on the bell adds an extra touch of class.

 

Compatible with Yamaha Custom necks

The redesigned octave key system gives players the flexibility to choose between the included 62-style neck and those designed for the Custom Z and Custom EX Yamaha saxophones (sold separately).

 

Improved Low B-C# connection

An improved mechanism from low B-C# ensures the consistent closing of the low C# key and promotes a clear response from notes in the low range of the instrument.

 

Professional Style Neck

The 62-style neck has been designed for improved tone and response.

 

Key guard

The separate key guards feature adjustable screw cap stoppers for professional-style technical adjustments.

 

Left-hand seesaw key

The left-hand seesaw key has been designed to increase playability as well as provide a more comfortable feel.
