My Yamaha YEB321S Sold
Posted: Fri Jun 09, 2017 10:11 am
This has been a real "war horse" of a horn for me. I've probably had it for about 15 years. It has lots of dents, dings and scratches due to its previous history as a school instrument that came to me from Texas barely in playing condition. It's a really nice playing instrument as the reputation for this model speaks for itself. The valves are pitted but don't leak and work fine when kept oiled. I think it still has lots of years of service left but sure isn't pretty. I've owned several 321 and a couple 381 Yamaha E-flats and thought they were all great playing horns. I later regretted selling every one of them. I've picked out my new Wessex "Gnagey" model to keep as a replacement. It has many of the same characteristics of the Yamaha plus some that the Yamaha doesn't possess. My wife says I'll miss this one eventually too. $850 plus shipping.
BTW: I'm making my Gnagey model available to try for anyone seriously interested in placing an order. PM or Email me if wanting the Yamaha or to visit to try the Wessex.
