caption_attribution_description: English: A Yamaha "YTS-23" tenor saxophone, made in Japan. The serial number on this instrument dates manufacture to April 1986, according to enquiries made to Yamaha Corporation. The YTS-23 is regarded as a student-grade instrument, but has a good action and decent intonation with neutral to bright tone-colors. Many professional players have one as their "back-up" instrument. The Yamaha "TS-100" is identical to the "YTS-23" (all parts are interchangeable) and was sold in the Far East, Australia and New Zealand.

context_page_description: This is a list of products made by Yamaha Corporation. – Note that Yamaha Motor Co. is a separate company which shares the brand name Yamaha with Yamaha Corporation.
  Please note that many of the items listed here are no longer in production. For example, the YAS-21 student-grade alto saxophone of the 1970s was superseded by the YAS-23 and YAS-25 saxophones during the 1990s. When manufacture of the YAS-23 and YAS-25 ended they were superseded by the YAS-275, which was in production as of 2010, but was eventually replaced by the YAS-280.
