Gold lip-plate
This version is identified by its gold lip-plate.

Independent shopping perspective
The gold lip-plate version of Yamaha’s intermediate YFL-482 combines a sterling-silver headjoint with open-hole keys, an in-line G layout, and a B-footjoint with Gizmo key. Open-hole keys give the player control over tone, and the B-foot extends the instrument down to Low B. The undercut, beveled embouchure hole is designed for clean attacks, responsive playing, and accurate intonation. Its footjoint alignment mark assists assembly, while the French-style case and durable cover make transport more straightforward.
