I think one has a VS on it, and the other has a NY on it.

The 9335's are Yamaha's Artist Model Bbs. You can do plenty of research on specs, etc, but these are my impressions of them (it's been awhile since I Bb shopped, but here's what I remember) Of the 3, the NY is the most middle-of-the-road.

9335 CH The Chicago series. The Bb has similar playing characteristics to the C it was based off and designed from. Deep slots (but still easy to skate through partials), locks into each note (starting soft, high passages is a breeze) and extremely even soundwise throughout the range. I feel I can get a great deal of color out of my Bb depending on how I shape my air. It's been a year, and I havnt found a Bb I like better than mine (including Eclipses, Taylors, NYTC, and other custom shops)

9335 NY The New York Model, it's like the best Bach you've ever played. Nice core to the sound, but not as even IMO as the Chicago. It felt brittle to me when I played it, if that makes sense

9335 VS The Vizzutti Signature. Total opposite of the Chicago - liquid flexibility and a real shimmer to the sound. Good for extremes in playing and likes to be manhandled. If youre someone who plays all over the horn this is a good one to check out. I tried two but there was something about them that I didnt care for. Now, Im also not Alen Vizzutti, either.

hope that helps
