Hey all,
I bought a YAS-62II 5 years ago, stepping up from my beginner yamaha. I was young at the time, and didn't really look around that much between saxophones before buying. There aren't many to test in most places around where i live. So I bought this one.
Now, I've developed a much amount as a player, and i feel i've come to a point where my tone has plateaued a little bit. I want to have a fuller, darker, sweeter tone, but i haven't been able to develop my tone much for a year or so. Now, i'm reading that the YAS-62II has a thin, brightish tone.
What can i do to get a darker, fuller tone WITHOUT buying a new saxophone, I really cannot afford it. I am currently using a Selmer C* S80 MP with the stock, metal lig, 3 1/2 Vandoren reeds
