General Comments
I am an amateur, but I am in the prime of my (non-musical) career and finally have enough money that I could afford to upgrade to the Yamaha YAS 62 from from my Bundy student model. I got the YAS-62 because it is the last sax I will ever need -- it produces a nice sound and has good action, but is far less expensive than a Selmer. I am satisfied overall, but a little disappointed at how sharp the upper register is. I noticed it when I bought the horn and ascribed it to the fact that my old horn had the opposite problem, and I am sure that I was compensating the wrong way and a pro without my bad habits would have less of an intonation problem than I do. However, I think the intonation problem is not entirely mine, and that Yamaha needs to make it a little better.
