Features

Well balanced

Yamaha Sousaphones are extremely well-balanced, easy to hold while marching.

Heavy bracing throughout

Because the Sousaphone is for use in a marching band, it has heavy bracing throughout to make it more durable at the vulnerable points.

Pressure formed tubing

Perfectly rounded tubing results in less turbulence and a smoother air flow, thus allowing for an excellent scale and reduced resistance.
