These are highly undervalued models--well respected by those who know, great intonation, better than average ergos. Some labels will call this the 1st Generation Selmer from the buyout. It retains the underslung neck and the bell keys moved back to the left. This example is in very nice condition, and some normal wear on the nickel plated keys.
Original Lacquer at 85%
PENDING INSPECTION:
- No resolders to mention?
There are only a few little dings throughout, they will all be taken care of in the rebuild. They maintain the Buescher warmth but have a bigger sound from their exponential bore and the big bell.
PADS: Rebuilt by WWS (2015) - Buescher Snap-in Pads. The original snap in system is intact, so it got a complete "Original Buescher" style rebuild, with metal-backed, snap-in pads and then the original metal dome resos with natural cork throughout.
