Go to all the music stores and see if they have one. Make sure to play one before you buy it. Especially for $2k.

Most music stores will order it if you want without you even commiting to buy it. You might wanna check into that.

My soprano is the YSS-62 which is the discontinued profession soprano put out by Yamaha. What I like about it more than the Yamahas out there today is that the body is one piece. The neck is attached to the body, which in my opinion creates a much better tone and sound. Of course you dont have the versitility of having a straight and a curved neck, but the straight neck connected to the body on mine produces a great sound. I bought it a few years ago off of a sax dealer/repair man for $2000 and I think it was a steal. You should look around and try to find one of those to try out as well.
