Hi,
I was just seeing a couple Spyro Gyra videos on YouTube and I realized Jay Beckenstein's YAS-62 has not and entire "J" style keyguard as all 62s of that era have. Videos are relatively old, AFAIK the single key guard covering only low B and Bb keys was introduced in the 90s or even later. Why is that saxophone different? Was that a difference between the USA and Japan assembled Yamahas?
These are the videos I'm talking about:
BTW, Which mouthpiece is he using in this video:
Is he using a 62 in this old video?
Thank you very much in advance.
