Top of the range Elite Yanagisawa Finished in brass - Sax Engineering doesn't get any better than this!

The WO series for baritone is here! Yanagisawa have refreshed their range and made improvements to their already highly regarded baritones. The BWO10 brings us a new sourcing of brass material, some adjustments in intonation and further advances in key mechanism and layout. The best has just got better!! 

Description

The Yanagisawa BWO10 baritone saxophone is a top-tier instrument tailored for professional saxophonists and serious musicians. Renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship and performance, the BWO10 features a meticulously crafted brass body that delivers a powerful, resonant tone with remarkable clarity and projection.

The BWO10 is considered one of Yanagisawa’s ‘Elite’ models, and in practicality, this means that there are some refinements in mechanism beyond what is available through the BWO1 and 2 models. Firstly, the BWO10 includes a ‘fully ribbed’ construction – this means that there are strips of brass soldered onto the body of the sax, on to which the various pillars are then soft-soldered themselves. This gives added ‘body’ to the tone while offering even further solidarity of design. Secondly, the Elite series offers double arms on the lowest and most vulnerable keys, again adding stability to the setup.

Staff Review

I simply love this baritone! Okay, it’s true, I’m not a baritone player, but if you pick this beast up and give it some stick, everything becomes easy! I think that Yanagisawa’s attention to detail when it comes to improving something that has been considered an industry-leading baritone for years is admirable. I find their entire WO series of baritones an absolute joy to play – the sound is the most responsive of all baritones I’ve ever tried; playing down through to the lowest register feels like an effortless process, and mechanically it is a dream! You can’t ask for more. Jim - SAX
