The Yamaha 52 tenor is probably the best modern horn in this price range. (Other options might be a YTS-61 or a Yanagisawa T-800). The 52 is a slightly cheapened version of Yamaha’s pro-line 62 series horn, and the tone is very similar. It is a nice, do it all kind of tenor with a clear, round tone and excellent intonation and ergonomics. This horn had all new pads by Matt Stohrer about a year ago, and it feels and plays very well. It would be hard to tell much of a difference between this and a purple logo 62 tenor, for example.
Cosmetically, it is in excellent condition with only minor lacquer wear on the back of the body. No past repairs, the bow, bell, and neck all look great. Buying a used horn like this is a great decision whether you are looking for a first horn, or whether you are a pro player who needs a doubling tenor or a good backup horn. Like Hondas, Yamahas hold their value well and are extremely reliable.
This is an easy, turn key purchase for a nice tenor saxophone.
