Congrats The day when a YTS 62 lands is a special one .... Look after it , it`ll be with you a very long time ...... unless you rob a bank and get an Andy Sheppard Autograph Tenor which apparently is like a YTS-62 on Steroids .

You`ve got a lot of Guitars !! ..

 

[Pyrografix]

Happy new sax day!
Enjoy - look forward to hearing it.

 

[Fraser Jarvis]

Well done, decent sax's them innit? stick a Rottweiler on it, get yourself a codpiece...sorted! are you able to see much improvement over the Jericho?

 

[Jamesmac]

Looks Beautiful Timbo.

 

[TimboSax]

Thanks guys, it's luvverly.

It's a mk1, probably late 90's, and is in remarkably good nick. It has a lighter touch than the Jericho, and seems a bit smoother, more even across the range.

Fraser, codpiece is sorted (obviously, I'm a guitarist!), not sure about the rottweiler. You've given me an idea though, I've got a metalite lying around somewhere...

Metalite on a Mk1 .... that`ll strip paint (hopefully the yellow paint off that Tele-ish shaped Jaguar or whatever it is - )

 

[Jeanette]

Beautiful, I'm sure you'll be very happy together

Jx
