Frequently Asked Questions

The 62A has a darker, more focused tone thanks to the resonator pad and bell engraving, moving away from the brighter, more student-oriented sound of earlier 62s.
Amber lacquer tends to show wear more readily than some other finishes; regular polishing with a quality sax polish is recommended to maintain its appearance.
While the 62A's keywork is excellent, the 82Z offers a slightly lighter, more refined feel and more advanced ergonomic features, but the 62A is still very comfortable and responsive.
