Yanagisawa S6 Soprano Selmer Mark VI Copy 473961

Yanagisawa S-6 soprano in good condition. The lacquer is fairly worn and the pads are older, but it’s a great price! These are copies of a Mark VI soprano, and they actually play better than the original in many cases! The intonation is better, and the keywork is built just as well. If you want that brassy, projecting soprano tone like Kenny G gets, or the thin, oboe-like tone that John Coltrane gets, those are both the direction these horns lean. (You’d need the right mouthpiece and a lot of practice to actually sound like those players stylistically, but the tone goes in that direction naturally.)
