14 Days Home Trial




Your instrument will most likely be with you for many years so it makes sense to try it out for more than an hour in a shop.

Our home trial even allows you try out mouthpieces, custom barrels, bells and ligatures.


Instruments

Instruments have a 14 day trial period so you can play the instrument at home or in band, take it to a lesson and show your teacher - basically make sure it's the correct Instrument for you. If not we refund the full cost of the Instrument, minus shipping costs. This trial 14 day period does not affect our standard offer of a 30 day return policy for any damaged or faulty goods. Returns are not accepted on special orders, bespoke or custom made items.

General Accessories

Accessories can be returned for refund or exchange provided they are sent back in a fully saleable condition, within 14 days of purchase. This trial 14 day period does not affect our standard offer of a 30 dayreturn policy for any damaged or faulty goods.

Returns are not accepted on special orders, bespoke or custom made items.

Mouthpieces

We offer a 14 day home trial period for mouthpieces. We also, at our discretion may allow three mouthpeces to be tried at a time with payment being made for one, the other two mouthpieces sent out on account. Mouthpieces returned are subject to a £5 re-stocking fee. 14 day trial period does not affect our standard offer of a 30 day return policy for any damaged or faulty goods. Returns are not accepted on special orders, bespoke or custom made items.

Yanagisawa AWO10U Alto Saxophone - Unlacquered Brass

Brand:Yanagisawa

Code:AWO10U

The all new Yanagisawa AWO10 range replaces the long standing and widely adored A991 series. Yanagisawa pro level Saxophones have long been popular with professional players and are Handmade in Japan to the most exacting standards with industry leading materials and precision.The Yanagisawa A991 gained quite a reputation over the past 30 years as a serious choice for both the advancing students and professionals due to its ability to play all styles of music. It's replacement, the AWO10 is even better!

The AWO10 has managed to retain the classic Yanagisawa feel and sound while updating and improving many design features, such as:

Front F Key
A new redesigned front F key for a better feel.

Right Side Key
Additional feet under the right side key levers (B, C and high E) for a better touch.

Right Pinky Key
New pinky key angle for smoother fingering.

New Engraving
Exquisite new hand engraving.

New Neck Plate
An additional neck plate for tightening the sound.

Palm Key plate
New palm key plate for added high range resonance, acoustic depth and projection across all register, and exceptional tonal stability.

Teflon octave system
Both ends of the octave key axis rotate in a receptacle that is coated with teflon to insure a smooth operation every time

Rocking table mechanism
The C# and Bb keys have a rocking table mechanism that allows for optimal speed and fluidity between these pitches

F-auxiliary key mechanism
Insures a proper seal of the pads when playing in the low range of the saxophone

"Indented" white shell keys
A player's fingers will rest comfortably in the indented white shell keys. The white shells also enhance the beauty of the instrument while also preventing the player's fingers from slipping during technical passages

Pointed pivot screw
The pivot screws that are used have a pointed end which facilitates an accurate center and precise action

Air-tight waterproof pad
The pads are completely air-tight which supports stability in playing and their life is extended thanks to being waterproof

Blue steel springs
Blue steel springs give the player quick response and are more resilient than stainless steel (they also last much longer)

Tri-point balanced bell brace
The bell and the body of the saxophone are securely connected by a tri-point balanced bell brace
