This is a Yamaha student model. It features an E mechanism, making the third-octave E easier to play. The silver-plated finish allows for a soft tone. The silver plating is not in good condition overall (there are small bumps throughout, see photos). The case also shows signs of use, and the metal fittings have rust. In preparation for this listing, the instrument was completely disassembled, all defective parts were replaced, and it was readjusted. There are no issues with the sound. It can be used immediately. ◎ We welcome your comments regarding price requests and inquiries. ◎ Even during comment exchanges, we will prioritize the person who completes the purchase process first, according to Mercari's rules. ◎ If you prefer anonymous shipping, please leave a comment, and we will change it immediately.
