Common Questions About the Yanagisawa TWO10
How does the TWO10 differ from the TWO1?
The TWO10 uses post-to-rib-to-body construction, an underslung octave mechanism, double-arm low B and C keys, and upgraded table-key connections. The TWO1 uses a lighter post-to-body design with an overslung octave mechanism and single-arm low keys.
