    Description

    Museum Quality Buescher C Melody Saxophone
    One Øf a Kind. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
    During my 45 years of collecting vintage horns, this STUNNING BLONDE lady is to be caressed, play without any desire to put her down.
    She is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS, with gold lacquer at 97% evenly matched throughout.
    Does she play?
    Oh yeah, she’s the BEST I have ever seen and sound for a C Melody.
    She is free blowing at both registers, with a velvety, sensual, honey sweet sound without the sharp edge that I don’t expect from a C Melody.
    And her Intonation? Almost as good as my Big B Buescher tenor, almost because she can’t be as reversatile as my B.
    What more, she is paired with a Great original C Melody Buescher mouthpiece with fitting antique ligature and useful metal cap.
    The case is used, but is a perfect fit for her body and fully functional and safe for transportation.
    Actually, I was delighted to discover a tiny key to lock the case, and two extra pieces in the trunk to secure the tenon and the fitting end of the neck.
    I believe it must be a thoughtful nicety for a Special horn. No risk of bent octave key when the lady travels.
    Serial number is 76880
    Made in 1921-22
