“Lovely, sweet sound”
'Lovely', and 'sweet sound' are not always the first things that come to mind when you think of a soprano saxophone, but in this case, it is true! With the Yamaha custom mouthpiece, and the basic metal ligature provided, this was a delight to play. The sound was sweet, focused, and versatile, and the mechanism is so well balanced that even the highest of the high register comes out with ease.
