Top quality professional level Euphonium, part of Yamaha's Maestro range. Silver plate is often preferred by brass players to the more usual lacquer as it has a distinctive lovely bright crisp tone.
The YEP642S features:
- Monel Valves- hard wearing option which is popular with professional players.
- Hand-lapped valves and slides- ensures an absolutely perfect fit and seal between the valve pistons and casing or slide parts. This improves the response and intonation of the instrument.
- Pressure formed tubing- this gives less turbulence and a smoother air flow, thus allowing for an excellent scale and reduced resistance.
- Compensating system- this ensures accurate tuning on all notes throughout the instrument's range, particularly in the difficult low range.
- Bell taper and leadpipe- designed for greater projection, control and response.
