The Beginning of a Legend
Before the Yamaha 62 became one of the most famous professional saxophones in the world, there was the YAS-61.
Introduced in the 1960s, the Yamaha YAS-61 was one of the instruments that established Yamaha as a serious name in professional saxophones. It quickly earned a reputation for its excellent intonation, comfortable keywork, reliable construction, and distinctive, expressive sound.
The YAS-61 was later replaced by the YAS-62, but its influence did not disappear. In many ways, the 62 became the next chapter of the story that began with the 61. Today, the YAS-61 remains highly regarded by players and collectors who appreciate its unique character and the important place it holds in Yamaha's history.
At James Sax Corner, we are always pleased when we have the opportunity to offer a well-preserved YAS-61. These instruments are no longer simply professional saxophones—they are part of the history of one of the most successful professional saxophone series ever made.
