Used Yanagisawa AWO37 Solid Silver Alto Saxophone
Handmade in Japan

Yanagisawa makes the highest quality professional saxophones on the market today! They are a specialty manufacture of professional handmade saxophones. They are a small factory blending old world craftsmanship with modern design and performance. The Yanagisawa AWO37 is the pinnacle of Yanagisawa manufacturing with the elegance of a Solid Silver handmade saxophone!

The Yanagisawa WO Series
Released in 2014 on the altos, the new WO Series saxophones represent the first major redesign of the Yanagisawa alto sax in over 20 years! Building on the outstanding platform of the A9 series, the new WO Series improve on the excellence of Yanagisawa! Impeccable intonation & build quality are a staple of the Yanagisawa line. The WO series bore has been further refined for a richer tone with several enhancements to the mechanical purity that is Yanagisawa!

The Elite Series replaces the A99x series. The Yanagisawa AWO37 features ribbed body construction for a richer, more complex tone. The new WO Series bore will redefine what players expect from a professional alto saxophone. With the Yanagisawa AWO37, no longer will players feel they have to sacrifice tone in favor of response & intonation.

About this Used Yanagisawa AWO37 – #00356864
This instrument was purchased brand new originally through our shop in April of 2018. It was used very sparingly and cared for well. There really are no signs of use on the instrument other than a few scratches on the inside of the bell rim/throat

For more detailed information on the changes in the WO Series from the previous A9 based models, please check out Dave Kessler’s blog post by clicking here. The Yanagisawa AWO37 features all of the standard Yanagisawa A99x series mechanical improvements such as:

Connected C#-B roller
Underslung octave mechanism
Double arm construction on the Low C & B keys

The Yanagisawa AWO37 further builds on A99x platform with a new front F key design, new right hand side keys and a redesigned right hand pinky cluster. A new case and engraving pattern have also been added.

Additional Information

'Solid' Sterling Silver
Setup

Solid Sterling Silver
The Yanagisawa AWO37 uses Solid Sterling Silver (92.5% pure silver, 7.5% copper) in lieu of traditional brass. Solid Silver is a heavy alloy but also vibrates & responds exceptionally well. This helps the AWO37 to be a more resonant instrument that offers more tonal presence and versatility. This effectively amplifies whatever is put in to the horn by the player and mouthpiece. So mouthpieces that are dark by nature will be darker, richer & bigger on the Yanagisawa AWO37. Mouthpieces that are brighter will be edgier, more brilliant and more powerful on the AWO37. The basic math is simple, the more Solid Silver used in the horn, the bigger the performance enhancement.

The Yanagisawa AWO37 uses a Solid Sterling Silver for all of the body tubing – Neck, Body, Bow & Bell. This is one of the absolutely most impressive playing instruments on the planet. Yanagisawa also features a more elaborate engraving pattern on the Yanagisawa AWO37 compared to the other Yanagisawa models.

Professional Setup
Every horn we send out to a customer is not released from us unless it has been completely setup in our shop first. This is because the setup on the horn is of the utmost importance! Sometimes, a saxophone (regardless of who the manufacturer) comes in needing 20 minutes of adjustments and then the very next one can require 2 hours! So if you were to get 5 of the same model right out of the box, they will all play different. This leads players to believe that they are “good” or “bad” saxes. The reality is that the one that was the best out of the 5 was likely the one that needed the least amount of work and the “bad” sax was the one that needed 2 hours worth of adjustments!

Once the same 5 saxophones are properly regulated and adjusted to perfection, they become near identical saxophones. Even the pickiest of players would be challenged to pick a true “favorite” horn. However, since most stores do not or even can not perform this setup, the player never knows this and is simply relying on the luck of the draw. This is why we perform our setup (in our www.SaxophoneRepairs.com ProShop) on them before delivering your new sax to you. You trust us with your purchase and we want to make sure that you are rewarded by giving you your ideal saxophone setup flawlessly!

A work of art on a magnificent piece of equipment. I am honored to have purchased this saxophone. So far, this is an awesome instrument and does not fall short of excellence.
I am far from a professional saxophonist, but I am blessed to be playing and practicing on a great instrument.

Thank you, Mr. Kessler for the opportunity in having this instrument for sale.

I like it!!!
