Choose from the folowing Yamaha Warranties:
My YTS-23 was made in 1993. After all that time, the lacquer is worn but not too badly, the pads are still in good shape, and it plays in tune without much work. Not much more I can ask for in a backup tenor (My primary instrument is a Selmer Mark VI). It only really gives up to the Selmer in terms of keywork smoothness and it's a touch less flexible in terms of tone. Considering that it really does come close to a good VI, that makes the 23 very worth it at almost any price, although they do depreciate a lot in value from new to used.
I got one of these 1995 for the high school marching band. To this day it is still a great saxophone, this horn has had rough life, and it still plays great! 15 years later I finally upgraded to the Yamaha Allegro, not because I needed to, but because I wanted to. I use the Vandoren Jumbo Java T-95, and I've been able to play everything from legit to swing...
I've had this saxophone for 4 years and counting. After almost biting through the mouthpiece that came with it, I bought a Meyer Hard Rubber and started using mouthpiece guards, I noticed a huge improvement. After buying an Otto Link, I found the sound that I'd heard from Blue Train, etc. There was a minor error in the F palm key, so the pad didn't cover the tone hole all the way, but a quick visit to the local music shop fixed that and the response was better than ever. I would recommend the beginner to use a mouthpiece guard, because with the plastic mouthpiece, I bit a pit into the mouthpiece that made my teeth rest in an uncomfortable position. After a while I would experiment with mouthpieces. (I would very much recommend the program that WWBW has to offer).
I've had this sax since 1987,played throughout Jr.high,High School(concert,jazz & 1yr marching band) & still play to this day in a town community concert & Jazz band.Once it's warmed up, the sound just keeps getting better. Played with a E. Rousseau hard rubber mouthpiece & vandoren #3ZZ reeds gives it a nice warm jazz sound.My one & only sax,till I break the bank & get the Selmer Mark VI. Wish it had the high F#.
Yes, there are other student models that are cheaper, but the YTS-23 is worth the money. The overall build quality is good enough so people learning the saxophone don't have to worry about it easily breaking on them. The key action, while obviously not as smooth as higher end tenors, doesn't feel clunky.
