Good qualty sax for your money
Bought this saxophone when I started to play I now have a Yanagisawa tenor but always go back to this little baby for my alto fix... it's very well put together sounds very nice for the price and is good value for money. It's lasted me a year now and I've never had any hassle with valves sticking or any other issue for that matter. Great saxophone for the learner or intermediate player or even beyond.

Perfect Sax with almost perfect add ons
You definitely can't go wrong with the Yamaha YAS 280 - aka the king of student saxophones. However, I can't understand why they don't include swabs. There is only one cloth for the exterior but nothing for the neck and interior of the body. You will have to order these seperately and should never play this fine instrument without them.

Quite satisfied so far
As a beginner sax player, I'm quite satisfied with the Yamaha YAS-280 saxophone so far. The sound is nice and the tuning is quite good (I play the piano and have very good ears). The only complaint I have is a sticking C# pad sometimes when I start playing, even though I swab the sax and dry all the pads every time after I play. It goes back to normal by just lifting it a bit manually, but it is a bit annoying having to do this often. Other than that, I have nothing to complain.

Great sound
The sound is perfect but the keyes not for professional musicians, perfect for beginners
