For
over one hundred years, the name Conn has meant the very finest in
American-made saxophones. The legendary models of the earlier part of the
twentieth century are among the most prized and sought after among
collectors and performers alike. As a tribute to the
quality of construction and design, vintage Conn
saxophones are often seen today in the hands of top professionals as the
"instrument of choice", and many of the innovations
first pioneered by the Conn company are found on instruments produced
today by manufacturers around the world.
1917 Conn Alto Sax SOLD
(These are photos of this
actual sax).
From the Serial Number 38915 we think this horn was made in 1917. Its in good condition for its age with no signs of any significant damage or repair work. It plays nicely having been set up, adjusted & extensively re-padded by sax technician Dennis Primett. It has an old fairly tatty but sound hard case. Another piece of sax history with a classic USA sound for less than the price of a new Taiwanese sax.
£399 SOLD incl.vat & UK mainland delivery.
