Yamaha YBS62 Baritone Saxophone Overview

The Yamaha YBS62 Baritone Saxophone is built for professionals who need a powerful, responsive instrument that’s still easy to handle. It features a newly designed ergonomic key layout that’s comfortable to play despite the baritone’s larger frame.

An upgraded B–C# mechanism helps ensure consistent low-note response, while the peg and peg post have been lightened to minimise impact on the sound. Two-point contact bracing boosts projection, and the hand-crafted two-piece bell delivers warmth and stability. Whether on stage or in studio sessions, the YBS62 supports reliable, balanced performance with practical improvements for real-world use.

Ergonomic comfort for full-sized playing

Despite its large build, the YBS62 is comfortable to play thanks to a redesigned key layout shared across Yamaha’s professional baritone models. The layout prioritises natural hand positioning, helping to reduce tension and improve accuracy during long performances. An adjustable tear-drop front F key and seesaw-style left-hand keys give even more control for fast passages and extended technique.

Better projection with refined resonance

Two-point contact between the body and bell boosts projection and creates a more open, free-blowing feel. A bell-ring adds extra vibrational support, helping the horn respond evenly across the range. This setup gives the YBS62 its strong presence—ideal for ensemble roles or soloing without overpowering the rest of the section.

Hand-shaped tone with solid consistency

The YBS62’s two-piece bell is joined by hand before being precision-shaped by machine. This process blends craftsmanship with accuracy, helping deliver a stable, centred tone—especially in the lower register. Key posts are fully integrated to support resistance control, and the new low B–C# mechanism ensures the low C# key seals properly every time, so those bottom notes speak cleanly.
