Seller added the following information: I just realized the condition is listed as"new" Clearly. Serial#7283 Shipping Shipping is $100 and will include tracking and insurance. I have done my best to dscribe its condition. Please read this whole description and watch the video. I am selling this sax AS IS to someone who understands its condition and wants it like this. Mouth piece, ligature, neck strap, case, reed. Finish has some cosmetic problems, as shown in pictures. It could use some oiling and additional routine maintenence. Because the octave key is not closing at the moment, I have not been able to test how well the lower register plays, but the upper register sounds great. The octave key is not closing properly and some of the pads don't seem to make a complete seal.
Watch the video below to hear it being played and some commentary on the condition of the pads and octave register. But sounds quite good for its age and condition. more a review of it here: Original owner has had this sax in storage for many years. Needs TLC The YAS-61 is similar to the more well-known 62 model.
