This is a Yamaha student model, recommended for beginners. It features an E mechanism for easier playing of the third octave E, and is finished with silver plating for a soft tone. Overall, it's in beautiful condition, but there are some minor scratches from use. I don't think they'll be noticeable. The case is also in good condition. For this listing, I disassembled the entire instrument, replaced any defective parts, and re-adjusted it. There are no issues with the sound, and it's ready to play immediately. ◎ We welcome your price requests and inquiries in the comments. ◎ Even during comment exchanges, we will prioritize the buyer who completes the purchase process first, according to Mercari's rules.
