Yamaha YX35G Xylophone

Compact. Tuneful. Built to Perform.

The Yamaha YX35G Xylophone delivers a beautifully resonant tone, professional tuning accuracy, and a reliable design ideal for both students and seasoned percussionists. Compact yet full-sounding, it’s a versatile choice for orchestral work, concert bands, schools, and travelling players alike.

Crafted with precision, the YX35G features natural padauk wooden bars that produce a warm, rounded tone with excellent projection across its 3½-octave range (C1–F4). Yamaha’s exclusive tuning method ensures each bar is perfectly voiced for authentic pitch and resonance — making it suitable for a wide range of musical settings from solo performance to ensemble use.

The height-adjustable frame allows the player to tailor the instrument’s position for comfort, while its lightweight and compact design make transport and setup a breeze. Despite its portability, the YX35G maintains excellent stability thanks to its strong crossbar frame and locking casters positioned conveniently on the player’s side.
