A classic fixed-neck soprano sax! The SWO range takes Yanagisawa one
step further beyond greatness, and this first model in the series gives
a beautifully rounded but equally focussed tonality. Effortlessly easy
to play!
This SWO1 brass model is suited just as well to aspiring beginners as to
experienced professionals. The student will develop their own style more
easily due to both the improved construction and ergonomic key design,
and the advanced professional can be assured of a superior tone. It has
a strong tonal core thanks to a re-engineered bore and toneholes, plus
many upgraded features exclusive to the WO series such as newly designed
Front F Keys, Ride Side Keys and Right Pinky Key.

Reviews:
"Having just completed a video review of this instrument, this soprano
stands out in my head as really fulfilling Yanagisawa’s aim of trying to
produce a new range that has more focus and core in the tonality. You
could argue that the ergonomic changes are neither here nor there, but
my feeling is certainly that the newly designed bore (and I have heard
re sourcing of brass material) has had a clinical effect on the tonal
production; to my mind we now have something that is closer to the
classic Mark VI soprano sound. Of course, we also have the usual joy of
effortless tone production and spot-on intonation at the same time.
Great job Yanagisawa!"- Jim Cheek (Sax.co.uk)
