Replacing its predecessor SC-991, Yanagisawa's new SC-WO10 Elite Professional soprano saxophone is the curved version of the fully ribbed S-WO10. As with all of Yanagisawa's new WO series lines, it gains from carefully re-engineered geometry and material distribution to attain the utmost in balance and stability across its whole range, while applying feedback from players to improve the positioning and ease of key operation. The right-hand pinky layout for low Eb and low C and the left hand palm keys have been positioned to sit more comfortably in the hands, while the addition of a thick brass plate underneath the palm keys adds body to the upper registers. With the curved bow slightly increasing resistance compared to its straight counterpart, the SC-WO10 soprano offers the professional performer unparalleled sweetness and nuance.
