Hi everyone

I need to know info about the sax tenor vintage Severin t-4. Is this a yanagisawa t4 or a fake copy ?

Thank you :)

I've got one of these, though mine is a T-5 or t-500. It's the real deal. The yani signs on the octave mechanism (red) and the one near the serial # are giveaways. Also if you play it, it's a yani!!!

Mine doesn't have the yanagisawa name anywhere, just Severin and the yani logo on the octave mechanism and near the serial #. It also has Japan written near the serial number...

Photos, please...photos. If there is no Yani insignia on key and/or serial area, the only way to identify definitely is via photos.

As it reads T-4, this would incline one to think it's a Yani. But thing is, T-4's were around for quite a while and they went thru a few iterations (keywork design changes significantly)
