The Yamaha 280 Tenor Sax succeeds its incredibly popular predecessor, the YTS-275. Based on the YTS-275 saxophone, it is even further enhanced with a new, more stable neck receiver and a new low B-C# connection for better adjustment. Most Yamaha saxophones are made in Japan. However, this particular model is made in Indonesia to keep the production costs down and enable them to offer this sax at a low price.
