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!

SOLD - SOUND FILE - A beautiful "The Martin Tenor", with an early serial number (matching neck #), and many original features present: brown felt... 98% original lacquer in excellent condition. I am biased and I love these, especially the early serial number ones (darker tone).

Buescher 1936 ‘Aristocrat I – The Aristocrat’ Bb Tenor, #273k (Archived)
SOLD - For the warm, blend and punch on command, think of a Buescher Aristo 1. Blended dark lacquer colors. It looks like the era of 50s re-lacquer color to me. These Aristocrats are well-loved and respected for a little punch in their warm tone. The bells on this Aristo model have that narrow look, which I think helps add to its unique projection.
