The unique tear-drop shaped F key improves playability. It is adjustable to players' preferences.

Mother of pearl key button

Mother of pearl is used as key buttons. It improves playability by making it easier to hold with soft but not slippery surface.

YSS-875EX

The Custom EX saxophone features a new ‘lily’ engraving design which is hand engraved on every instrument. Custom EX logo is the proof of craftmanship.

High G key (YSS-875EXHG)

The High “G” key on the YSS-875EX maintains the same functionality as on the original EX letting you comfortably play a high G (a semitone higher than usual soprano saxophones) with greater stability.

Case (SSC-875EX)

These saxophones come in deluxe ultra-lightweight cases which provide excellent protection. A convenient carrying strap is also included.

One-piece bell

Crafsmen shape the bell from a sheet of brass with a hammer. This adds a unity to the body and makes the intonation in middle to lower range smoother. It also has a solid tone.
