Although 'rough' looking on arrival, this sax I knew was a battle-tested field General. I wanted to name it "The General".

SUPER EARLY Serial number to find on baritones #169k, , on arrival she had LOTS of green growth on the brass, but an Original Lacquer early Martin...!!!... I had to find an original thumb-hook. This baby had the body fully taken apart while here to tend to her bruises in her life. She will come out looking like your war hero when I'm done.

New Protec Case, also!

SOUND: it's definitely the Martin sound--huge, resonant; not for your quite sectional.
