      I wold never describe a Yamaha Sax as fragile. Clearly this chap in the video is sponsored by some another manufacturer. If the Tenor 62 is anything like my Alto 62 it is a very solid build. Even my YAS-26 is very well made and it doesn’t even feature on most rankings. My YAS-62 has more powerful springs, requires more air, but the tone is really beautiful especially in the lower range. It feels rugged to play and the keys are in comfortable positions. I practice during the week on the 62, play the 26 on weekends, and you immediately notice the difference in quality and tone, but the 26 is still miles better than most other intro brands. A few people have asked to buy my 26 from me, but its not for sale.

                      This may be a little crazy, but I remember the keys as unique fingering. In other words Db is not C# but a separate note with similar fingering. Remembering the notes as separate entities works for me as I don’t have the necessary processing speed to convert adhoc – LOL – much too many days spent under the sun. Got to keep the processing to a minimum. Keep all twelve loonies off the grass!

                        Nice one James, I love the mellow woody sound of the clarinet.
