Yanagisawa T-WO20 Bronze Elite Tenor Sax Unlacquered with No High F#
The Yanagisawa T-WO20 Tenor Saxophone is identical to the T-WO10, except the lacquered bronze provides a beautiful look and rich, deep, mellow tone. This saxophone features an unlacquered body and with no High F# key.
The T-WO20 blends the brilliance and rich tonal palette of bronze.
The New Yanagisawa T-WO20 replaces the long-standing and popular T992 series.
The Yanagisawa T-WO20 Tenor Saxophone is an enhanced version of the T-WO10. It features a lacquered bronze body that not only provides a beautiful look but also a rich, deep, mellow tone, making it a significant upgrade for saxophone enthusiasts.
The WO20 series boasts significant technical upgrades over the WO10 series. The double arm support on the low keys ensures better pad seating and a stronger low-end sound. The posts that hold the keys in place are mounted onto strong support straps that run the length of the instrument, adding weight and support to the body and influencing the carrying power of the tone. Additionally, the WO10 and 20 series feature an underslung neck for less resistance in the response and more reliable mechanics, all of which contribute to its outstanding evenness of intonation over its entire range at all dynamic levels.
With a heritage of instrument-making in Japan that traces back to 1893, Yanagisawa is recognised today as a maker of the world's most carefully handcrafted family of artist-level saxophones. In models ranging from sopranino to baritone, these superb instruments have won the praise of many celebrated musicians.
