The Yamaha YAS-280 alto saxophone offers a perfect introduction to the world of the sax. Whether a student beginner, or an advanced player needing a doubling instrument, the 280 series saxophones offer surprisingly high quality features at a student model price.
This is the top selling student/intermediate sax in the world. Made to the highest standards the 280 still outperforms everything around it. The design of the crook is based on the Professional 62 model to give a flexible, responsive tone. Beginners will find this sax easy to play and produce a secure tone on, advancing players will enjoy the quality tone and positive action.

The case lid opens wide to allow easy access to the saxophone and a large internal storage area, all providing excellent protection for your instrument that is easy to carry.
