Based on the scale and design of the classic '62' models, Custom Z saxophones have bodies that are made of a special brass alloy for lighter weight, a great playing 'feel', and the kind of tonal flexibility you've always dreamed of.
The Z plays evenly in all ranges, and gives the player a huge dynamic range for as much - or as little - sound as you want. The Custom Z saxes have unparalleled tonal flexibility for confident performance in all styles of music. With one piece neck.
Distinctive designs offer players beautiful tonal colors. The new Custom Z soprano models are reminiscent of vintage Yamaha soprano saxophone designs. YSS-82Z is available with a straight neck, while YSS-82ZR has a curved neck.
The one-piece neck without any joints between the body and the neck provides a free and even response. YSS-82Z is available with a straight neck, while YSS-82ZR has a curved neck.

Key designs are more comfortable and ergonomic.
Hand engraving style adds beauty and style.
All Yamaha saxophones feature an adjustable thumb hook to allow for precise and comfortable hand and fingering position.
