This week I got to try out a limited edition Yamaha YAS-62IIS alto saxophone selected by Dave Koz. It is a professional level instrument with an eye-catching silver finish.
Dave Koz is one of the leading saxophonists on the smooth jazz scene today. He recently earned a star on the Hollywood walk of fame. He has a number of highly successful albums, and hosts a popular jazz radio talk show.
The Yamaha corporation put him in a room full of saxophones and asked him to choose his favorite 15.
California Keyboards purchased this limited edition instrument recently at the NAMM Convention (North American Music Merchants) in Anaheim.
Here’s a little video clip of my moment with the horn.
