The Yamaha YAS-280 beginner Sax offers a perfect introduction to the world of the saxophone. Whether a student beginner, or an advanced player needing a doubling instrument, the 280 series saxes offer surprisingly high quality features at a student model price.
This is the top selling student/intermediate sax in the world. Made to the highest standards the 280 still outperforms everything around it. The design of the crook is based on the Professional 62 model to give a flexible, responsive tone. We were really impressed with the YAS-280 in our recordings as it had impeccable tuning and a free blowing sound that is unparalleled at this price range.
New beginners will find this sax easy to play and produce a secure tone on, advancing players will enjoy the quality tone and positive action. Here at Dawkes Music we professionally set-up each YAS-280 in our Workshops to our Platinum standard ensuring perfect blowing and action.
We have a variety of testing environments instore for customers to experience and enjoy. Our range of testing rooms are available to pre-book and we can even reserve stock in advance so if you're making a jouney to see us we can be prepared to make it a special experience for you.

The service and care that Matt showed myself and my grandson was above and beyond what I expected. Thank you. My grandson had a fantastic afternoon in the store; an experience that he will never forget.
Great and easy process purchasing from Dawkes, delivered very quickly and well packaged. Loved the extra reeds thrown in to the case. Also love the fact they do tune ups and loved the videos online, really helped me pick the right sax for me. Can't recommend enough.
Love playing this instrument, tone is so much better than my previous one
Huge upgrade, so worth the trip to the shop.
This alto is just right for me
Great sound output, Light weight
Excellent sax for the money! Plays really well!
Beautiful instrument and good value. Haven't heard the tone yet but I'm optimistic it will be just what we wanted.
So far, so good. Big difference between this and the sound of my previous sax
Perfect condition, plays beautifully!
