Yamaha YMP204MS Marching Mellophone – Silver-Plated Finish

The 204M features a rich vibrant sound with excellent tonal projection. Yamaha R&D conducted extensive field tests with leading bands, and has redesigned the bracing for a more open ‘free-blowing’ feel. The overall balance has also been changed making it more comfortable to hold and play, while the slide configuration has been reworked improving both intonation and tone qualities.

• The improved bell shape provides optimal projection while producing a clear and soaring sound
• The first and third valve slide lengths have been modified to improve the overall intonation and tonal coloring
• Key of F
