Kolhert 1957 ‘Model 57’ Eb Alto, #35k (Archived)

SOLD - A rarer sax from the pinnacle of the Kolhert factory. Model 57 is considered their best sax.  "...They just sound really, really good. They are much like a vintage Keilwerth, although a bit 'edgier' than a Keilwerth; and a bit more 'aggressive' and 'wider' in tone than a French or Italian horn. Intonation tends to be quite good."

Buescher 1955 ‘Aristocrat IV – 157’ Bb Tenor, #356k(Archived)

SOLD - (SOUND FILES) Cousin to the Top Hat & Cane, I would label these "Model: 400, series III". Get a TH&C tone for 60% less cost! I consider these to be some of the best bargain/undervalued saxes in the market. You get the engineering designs of previous 400 models with a few changes to neck braces, octave triggers, guard designs, no silver bell ring(underside), but the big bell and 400 rear bell keys.

Conn 1955 ’10M’ Bb Tenor, #566k (Archived)

SOLD - Sound File - A rare beauty! A beautiful example here of what some might call the "last of the real 10Ms" before the Mexico era. An affordable 10M - Comes with a custom built case is great condition. This sax was adult owned, last owner was Owner #3. As I inspected it, I saw about two small dings/dents in the history and one ping. Comes inquire to be owner #4!
