Offered FS due to light use now that my quartet has disbanded, and to gather funds to upgrade my CC.
YFB-621, lacquer
S/N 10..032 (number 32 -- I forget how many leading zeros -- posting from the office)
(one of the early, "hand built" models, I'm told)
1st valve vented / with ring
Purchased used from Lee Stofer last year.
Very good condition. Yamaha hard case included. Photos available upon request.
$3400 plus shipping.
The only note I have trouble with is the Eb (1st) directly below the staff, which tends to be a little flat for me. But I also have to have the main slide pulled farther than Lee did, and he wasn't having any trouble with the Eb note. So, it could be me, or the 1st valve slide might need to be trimmed. Priced to allow you some budget for this modification if you need it. Priced to be a good deal if you don't need to do this.
