    Description

    Vintage 60's PIERRET - Olds Parisian Ambassador with Mts Case and Selmer Mouthpiece. Sax Serial #051325.
    This vintage alto has been cleaned and *adjusted, and plays very good - top to bottom - with a mellow, smooth tone on the included Selmer mouthpiece. Pads have been replaced where needed with the older pads in good condition (some may need changing in the future). Corking and felts have been also replaced where needed and the springs show quick action. Cosmetically there are no major dents; just a small mild one just above the left palm keys (pic #6). Most of the finish is still very good, but spotty is certain areas (see pics). Key guards and keys range in very good to great condition. Scuffs and scratches are concentrated on the bow and there's finish wear on the neck. The top foot of the bottom back key guard on the bow is slightly pressed into the bow (pic #7). None of this interferes with playing performance. Pearlescent accents were added to the key guards and can be easily removed if you wish. The used Mts case is very sturdy and cleaned with no smells. Included with the case are a new yellow microfiber polishing cloth, a very nice vintage brass end plug, a black vintage ACE neckstrap, 2 extra Rico standard cane reeds, and the Selmer mouthpiece w/ligature, new cap, and new Rico Plasticover reed.
    Good Luck Bidding!
    *I'm very good with adjustments/repairs, but recommend a pro sax tech tweak it after shipping for optimal performance.
