Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2023
I vetted this instrument as much as possible before purchase. I looked at all of the reviews on Amazon and searched social media for mentions and reviews as well.
I've been a band director for over 20 years. I even went to college near a Yamaha music instrument distribution center and regularly had to go pick up instruments for our music department. As soon as I saw the box I knew the instrument was legit. The box, the way it was sealed, opening the box and seeing how the saxophone was packaged I knew it was all from the factory- albeit a factory in Japan. Some of the reviews I read talked about a knock off instrument or a used instrument being shipped (I ordered a new instrument). I did not see any kind of tampering with the instrument. The shipping corks were all there and in the correct places. The serial number and fonts used for the make, model and serial number on the saxophone all matched pictures I've seen of instruments that were verified to be Yamaha 62s (I used Yamahas website to verify font and placement of the script.)
The instrument came with the standard Yamaha ligature and nylon neckstrap and small vile of cork grease. A person buying an instrument such as this would want a more advanced ligature, neckstrap and (most likely) cork grease that doesn't have to touch your finger and get under your fingernails.
I would not recommend this instrument for a beginner. There are "student model" alto saxophones sold by Yamaha and many other companies that will do as good of job for a cheaper price and be much more cost effective should a repair be needed. (Jean Paul AS-400 is my current recommendation for my beginning alto saxophone students.)
The instrument shipped on time and arrived on the time displayed on Amazon. No duty charge was required. (I had seen someone complain about having to pay a duty charge). Initially the seller had put for the package to be signed for, but that was removed sometime during shipping. If you want to sign for your package I'd make that request.
Overall my experience was great. The only problem (if you want to call it that) was not from the seller but from our bank. We get fraud alerts when making purchases over a certain dollar amount. Once we verified with our bank we were making this purchase they released the money and all was fine. My advice would be to notify your bank BEFORE you make the purchase, and not after, if you have this same fraud alert system. This will save you from the headache we had to deal with.
