The lower notes were sooo much easier to get out in particular. I did prefer the brighter sound and feel of the Yamaha – likely because it was more what I was use to due to my alto being a YAS23 – but the Cannonball – to me – was much easier to play. I played it along with a brand new Yamaha Custom Z tenor, a new P Mauriat tenor – both of which were much more expensive – and also an old Buescher that was $800. Well, my local Sam Ash music had the used Cannonball Big Bell Global Series that was in good shape (that had belonged to one of their employee’s) for sale for $1800. The photos of both instruments are in the appendix (the YST-62 is the bottom instrument).I have no intetion of trying to buy a Purple Logo Yamaha right now, though. ) then the YTS-32 is an excellent and cheaper alternative. So if you are looking for a favorable alternative (and actually the same sax. We can indeed conclude that the YTS-32 purple logo and the YTS-62 purple logo are basically identical saxophones!

A lot of information can be found on the various internet forums, and it is even claimed that the YTS-32 is a 'stripped-down' version of the YTS-62. That was a great opportunity to determine the differences between the YTS-62 and the YTS-32. This week MRO saxophones received a Yamaha YTS-62 purple logo for repair.
