YAMAHA YVS-140 TENOR VENOVA PUHKPILL

• Lightweight and portable
• Water washable so it’s easy to clean
• Simple fingering similar to recorders

• Rich, expressive tone that plays and sounds like a saxophone

Compact and durable

The YVS 140 has a sturdy ABS resin body, which requires very little maintenance and can be properly cleaned using just water. The lightweight construction is incredibly resilient and portable, so it’s perfect for younger players and musicians on the move. The body can be separated into its upper and lower sections, allowing for easier cleaning and a compact footprint for easy transport. And the YVS 140 comes included with a handy case, perfect for travel.

Modern, easy-to-play design

Intelligent design choices have enabled Yamaha to create the sound of a tenor saxophone with a compact instrument. A meandering pipe is used to decrease the distance between the tone holes, giving a much simpler structure which minimises the use of keys. And a “branched pipe” added to the cylindrical bore creates the tone of a conical-bore instrument in a much smaller design. The Venova comes with the “Let’s Play Venova!” guidebook, which gives you all the advice you need to start playing some songs – so even if you’re completely new to wind instruments you’ll be up and running in no time.
