Dont no exactly which, but at least is _not_ the latest model, i.e. 99x, which has the bell keys on the right side.

I'm guessing maybe 20 years old at least. Also, it is not the SC90X series, either. Note the in-line palm keys, a palm-key design that was styled after the Selmer MKVI and present on Yanagisawa's S-6 models of the 1980's. The case is also an older model. DAVE

Difficult to make out for certain but it looks from the serial like a 1982 instrument - plenty of posts on Yani serial numbers but I copied the following from a Googled website:

1972 - 12729030
1973 - 12731254 1987 - 00141658
1974 - 12745400 1988 - 00148774
1975 - 12753382 1989 - 00156006
1976 - 12764553 1990 - 00162968
1977 - 12775790 1991 - 00170073
1978 - 12781317 1992 - 00177116
1979 - 12791801 1993 - 00184318
1980 - 00102143 1994 - 00189050
1981 - 00106981 1995 - 00197400
1982 - 00111892 1996 - 00205400
1983 - 00117142 1997 - 00213000
1984 - 00122663 1998 - 00219500
1985 - 00128485 1999 - 00228250
1986 - 00134903 2000 - 00235000

My straight sop (1989) has virtually identical keywork.

Senior moment - thought "1981" but typed "1982". It's an 81 horn I think.

Doh.

My Yani soprano has the serial number 00103661 and its, apart from the case and more scratches, similar to this one. I got myself a neck thats less bended, - is was almost as I got a new horn.

As Dave said, it is not one of the SC-90X series because its octave key is not an underslung one.

Could be a curved S 6?

the case is the same that comes with the martin stencils . great sop despite the palm keys
