SOLD - (On consignment -- Plays mild-ok on old pads) #76k, Keyed to F!, Finish: Original Silver. There are only a few curved sopranos we can recommend. This is one! Having the high-F key and it being is great shape overall make this one to watch, or scoop up. No major damage to report and the sax is in great shape cosmetically.
Comes with original case is good shape (mild vintage smell); currently no handle, but ask be if I have a replacement to add to the this package.
Other: ‘Marveltone’ Soprano, (WWS reface)- 0.067″
SOLD - Made of hard rubber, it maintains a nice warmth. It arrived with a tiny 0.052 tip so I opened it up to 0.067". It responds very nice with a 2.5 reed and has strong presence and focus. I would call this a 'short shank' style; it also has a noticeable tight, smaller shank to fit on your neck cork(12.85mm vs. a modern C* 13.55mm). Medium round chamber. sorry, no ligature included. a rovner soprano will work great.
