Czy ktoś spotkał się / miał okazję zagrać / czy cokolwiek więcej potrawi powiedzieć o tym modelu?
A może ktoś spotkał sie z tym konkretnym saksofonem? Nie ma ich w Polsce zbyt dużo.
Dzięki za odpowiedzi.

Trochę spóźnione.... z saxontheweb...
The A-9932Z was in fact produced as a special model to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Zen-on Music Company in Japan for a limited 12 month period at around the year 2000. Peter King as a UK Yanagisawa endorsee visited the Yanagisawa factory whilst touring Japan with the Charlie Watts Band in 2001. He tried out some of the altos and fell in love with the A-9932Z (with the gold plated inner bell) . In appreciation for his help in the UK, Mr Yanagisawa presented Peter with the sax at the Blue Note in Tokyo later that evening. I met up with Peter King at the Ronnie Scotts Club on his return to London and he was thrilled with the saxophone even though he had played a MkV1 for 25 years. ( He had not realised that the bell were and neck were solid silver!) Following this event, at Barnes and Mullins Ltd ( UK Yanagisawa distributors) began importing the A-9932Z . The bells were farmed out to another plating company to plate the inner bell, unfortunately after about a year that company seized to exist following a fire on their premises. I requested the continuation of the model without the gold plating and having the " Sekai Ichi-ban" (The World's Finest) engraved inside the bell in Japanese Kanji. I decided on the suffix "J" for Jazz instead of the the Z. A year later we began to bring in the T-9932J and we enjoyed sole distribution for these two models. Wally Evans

Peter King jak widać grał 25 lat na MKVI po czym przeszedł na Yani A9932Z.... Teddy a saxo ostatnio sugerował, że Twoja Yani się zupełnie nie umywa do jego MKVI.. oj biedny nieświadomy..."" hehe.
