    Description

    This saxophone was acquired from an estate in Southern California. I bought it because it was in such beautiful condition for its age. I do not know anything about wind instruments, but I have done my due diligence to understand what I am selling and to make sure you will get what you expect.
    I had it looked at by a professional saxophone musician/technician and I was told that it is in playing condition as it is with all keys functioning and pads are good.
    My research determined that it was made between 1936-1937 by the serial number 111369
    It appears to have been re-lacquered- estimated 20-30 years ago
    Comes with a 5 Meyer lapped facing S medium chamber hard rubber jazz mouthpiece
    This would have been a professional instrument when it was made.
    Considered intermediate by todays standards
    Includes hard shell case, and everything shown in the photos
    Please feel free to request more photos of anything specific that you want to see.
