The 82Z is definitely clearer. The 875 which I love has that Rollins sound. I think it depends on how original the player wants to sound. The Rollins tone doesn't work for everybody. The 82Z sounds like a lot of others but its up the player. I had a 875 soprano and it was the best horn i ever had new. Im still a Mark VI man. The Yamaha Custom was originally a Mk VI copy
I had the pleasure of testing the very 1st 82 Atelier tenor that arrived here in the UK. WOWWWWWWW, most resonant free horn I everrrr blew. Had 4 Z's myself, the new version is just even better. Amazinggggg
Hi - We don't stock that specific strap (we rarely get asked for metal hook straps nowadays) but I believe it's by BG France, here is a link to their strap options: www.dawkes.co.uk/woodwind-accessories/saxophone-accessories/saxophone-strap If you wanted to see the full range Dawkes offer, there is a link to those here: www.dawkes.co.uk/woodwind-accessories/saxophone-accessories/saxophone-strap
My custom Z has the G1 neck. I was looking to change to the V1, but now I am wondering if I should go with the C1? Do they both provide the same level of volume? Could I also add the neck screw. I am not ready to buy a new Custom Z, but I would like to upgrade my Z as much as I can.
J'ai essayer les 2 et le 82Z Edition a un son un peu moins brillant (plus feutré) et semble légèrement plus léger,pour ces 2 facteur je choisi celui ci
Someone somewhere said the 82 is like Lester Young and the 875 is like Sonny Rollins. (Or Coleman Hawkins if you wanna be more historical about it.). I don’t know if that’s true or hyperbole but it stuck with me.
I think that out of the box, 82Z Atelier is less versatile than the 875EX, but it is more controllable for what it is aimed to: the jazz. If you listen to the sub-tones Simon is producing with the 82Z Atelier, they are more nuanced and mellower. It is everything Selmer Mark 6 tin bucket ever aspired to be.
1:05 YTS-875 and 3:52 YTS-82Z Atelier.

Would have liked to hear the 82z with a v1 neck. The c1 has a much smaller sound
To my ear the 82z is a dryer sound and the 875 is a sweeter one
Is that Simons personal gold plated neck on the 875?
Yes :-)
I can't tell wich one I like more😆
The YTS82Z is the clear winner
What's the sax strap the guy on the left is using. Do dawks sell them.

What about the altos? Is it the same difference?
There hasn't been an Atelier version of the Alto yet, so no chance to compare.
Oh I was talking about the 875 and custom Z... Not the atelier version but ok, thanks
So is this the original custom 875? Or the 1st Gen EX?
This is the current (2019) Custom EX model.

The two sound very different from each other
El 875 es más versátil que el 82Z
The 82Z sounds stiff and not very resonant.
