SOLD - In a clean original lacquer finish and only minor chair dings and dents to work back out. This is will be a ringer! It arrived in factory pads and felts (mostly!). I think this is cool to see.
B&S 2004 ‘Medusa – Series 2006’ Eb Alto, #016,430 (Archived)
SOLD - Factory New - This is THE example of all the great German saxes that we've learned to love and respect - think also of the Dave Guardala DG500 models, but with the next tier of improvements!: G# lifter; Screw adjustments on the lower stack; *no adjustable palm keys on this example. Original Medusa case with multiple neck slots
Martin 1939 ‘Committee II- Lion & Crown’ Eb Alto, #135,58x (Archived)
SOLD - Here's another longtime favorite: Martin Comm II. It's in really good shape! These have a very strong build, known for good intonation, sweet-fat tones and all american Jazz core tone. The "Lion & Crown" engraving is crisp and beautiful, and you can see lots of the original lacquer over the nickel keys (common and expected)
Conn 1953 ‘6M’ Eb Alto, #356,2xx (Archived)
SOLD - A very pretty, clean 6M - Artist - "Naked Lady" Conn alto sax. One of the first Conn 6Ms without the microtuner in the neck (a good thing IMHO). Serial #356k, G# trill key and underslung octave. It has nicer pads that look like very low playing time.
Buescher 1946 ‘Aristocrat II – Big B’ Eb Alto, #313k (Archived)
SOLD - Here's the warmth and power combined! Original finish with a beautiful dark look. It will need rebuilt to enjoy but these are some of the best. The neck is the desired # "01". ALL Snaps present, #01 neck, and limited dings with a unique dull/aging finish
King 1948 ‘Zephyr’ Eb Alto, Series III, #299k (Archived)
SOLD - One of the realm gems of the sax world, this era of Zephyr is near identical to the Super 20 for half the cost! Deep, dark original lacquer finish at 85%, triple neckstrap ring, rounded keywork, all indicative of the series iii model. Matching neck and tweed case, gotta love that.
King 1932 ‘Voll-True II’ Eb Alto, #145k (Archived)
SOLD - In a clean lacquer finish, it looks like a "first time lacquer" since lacquer wasn't all that common before 1934. Perhaps it is 1930s/40s due to the color. Pearl octave lever, backside G#, and double-G pad venting (early King style).
Selmer ‘AS600 – Aristocrat’ Eb Alto, #32,208 (Archived)
SOLD - These are great for kids. The name brand, nickel plated keys, and very easy ergos and has high F# too.
