I have been singing the praises of the latest models of Yanagisawa Saxophones for a while now, my preference being the TWO20 Tenor. I am pleased to say that Yanagisawa have made me a UK Yanagisawa Artist. I am humbled to be listed amongst so much saxophone greatness! If you haven't tried these great saxophones then you're missing out.
