This Yamaha YSS-61 is one of the earliest examples you’ll see at serial number 1002. It plays like a dream and looks incredible. The lacquer and keywork are remarkably well preserved for a horn of this vintage; with the kind of cosmetic and mechanical condition collectors and serious players both require. It’s a classic professional Yamaha soprano: centered, responsive and ready for the practice room or the studio.
What makes this one a true time capsule is the complete original package. It comes with the original Yamaha case in nice shape, plus the original case keys, inspection document and warranty card - all still in their original plastic sleeve. Also included are the original Yamaha ridged mouthpiece, ridged ligature and mouthpiece cap. Horns this early rarely survive with the paperwork and accessories still together like this.
