Oh, I don't know; plenty of folks seem to like the big YFB-822 and there is the occasional really good YBB-641. My question pointed out the fact that Yamaha has never really tried to sell what might well be a great BBb in the USA. Could be that Yamaha thinks BBb and "school instrument" are the same and there's no market for a high-end pro model. The YBB-105, 201 and 321 are intended to be beaten up as school horns.

In wind instruments, there's Yamaha and then there's Yamaha. My wife wouldn't trade her handmade gold-brass Yamaha alto flute for anything. It would certainly be educational to see what Yamaha's best effort in a BBb is.
