***From Sarge's Collection!***
This is another rare mouthpiece. It comes with a original ligature and silver, slide-on cap! Made of hard rubber, these have a huge, large chamber design. They are known for playing mellow, clean and "vintage". These have a fluted rubber exterior and silver plated ring shank and reed cap.
I believe this is an example of what was later labeled with some "zephyr special" models; I've seen this design, lig and slide cap with "King Zephyr Special" engraved on it instead of the "Equa Tru Special" label.
Markings: "France" and "K - 2" on side of body.
The facing looks like it had minor maintenance, or Seal Enhancements, and measures 0.080".
NOTE: There is a small tooth groove discovered under the tooth pad. WWS can fill this in partnership with the sale.
