Hate to break it to you but it's probably not the horn's fault that your tone is bad and it certainly has nothing to do with it being a Yamaha. If Yamaha was a bad brand, then people like Jean-Yves Fourmeau, Otis Murphy and Nobuya Sugawa wouldn't waste their time playing them.

Yamaha custom professional models are some of the best saxophones in the world.

@dragonforceisasem That depends on the player.

I played Clarinet for 3-4 years, then alto for 5 years before i tried bari. And it is damn hard to keep the embouchure relaxed while playing, when you learned to keep a certain amount of force on the reed with the clarinet and alto-saxophone. But it sounds damn awesome if you can do it.

@jzer21 Man, if Yamaha was a bad a brand, then it wouldnt be in the Big 4

@kulacgizmo I agree. Most people say that the Yas 23 is the best, but hey, then the 21 gets cheaper ;)

Just bought another 21 for resale, 100bucks : )

selmer this, selmer that. If you want to get the best craftsmanship for the price, get yourself a Yanagisawa. All of their horns are pro level. I've played on a many different horns, and none are better. The key work is much nicer than the Selmers, as is the response and resonance of the horn. I've played on Series 3, 2, and Super action's, and they all respond poorly in the lower register. not to mention all the problems with the special mechanisms, such as the C. way overpriced.
