Alto Saxophones



Selmer (Paris) Mark VI Alto #147879


$7,300


Selmer Mark VI alto #147879 was manufactured in Paris in 1967 The owner studied saxophone with the legendary Don Sinta at Ithica College during the '60's and Sinta picked out this horn for him at the factory. After college he played in a few bands, then packed it up in the attic. It will need a complete overhaul (we can do it in ours shop, or bring it to your guy), but it is one of the cleanest Mark 6's we have seen in a long time. Original lacquer is about 98% intact. Just a few small blemishes. Comes in its original case.



Buffet Super Dynaction #22199



SOLD



According to The Vintage Saxophone Gallery "This is Buffet's most famous saxophone and is one of the two most serious competitors to the Selmer Mark VI in the category of "Best All-Around Horn", even thought it is much less known and respected." Ours was made in 1974 and is in very nice condition, with about 85% of the original lacquer intact. Check out the cool key design on the low Eb/C keys (no rollers) and the split low Bb key. Great playing collector's item!



Conn 6M Alto Saxophone #338360



SOLD



"Lady Face", Microtuner, Underslung Octave Key!

A very fine 1950 vintage Conn 6M alto saxophone. Not sure if this is the original lacquer or not. The bell engraving is extremely crisp and clear, but there is some buffing wear and lacquer drip just below the right hand thumb hook. Pads all have brown plastic domed resonators and are in used but very good condition. A couple of small dings and scratches here and there. Very minor. Horn plays great as is and was fully adjusted before listing, but you still may want your horn tech to go over it and set it up exactly to your liking. Comes in its original case, in good condition.



Tenor Saxophones



Selmer Mark VI Tenor #146296


$7,500


Selmer Mark VI tenor saxophone # 146296 was manufactured in France in 1967. This horn has a lacquered body and silver plated keys, suggesting it was made for the European market. The lacquer is original, with crisp, sharp engraving extending onto the bow. Silver plated keys show a bit of tarnish, but otherwise are in pretty good shape. Pads, corks, felts all showing a bit of of wear, but are in perfectly serviceable condition, having just been gone over in our shop. A great-playing, free-blowing horn. Comes in a BAM contoured case, in good condition, and includes an Otto Link Tone Master 2000 mouthpiece.


Martin Committee III #169221



SOLD



The Committee III is commonly referred to as "The Martin Tenor," since that's what's engraved on the bell. It was probably the most advanced saxophone design that Martin came up with before they discontinued production in 1971. This horn dates to 1948, just after WWII ended. It is in excellent condition with about 90% of its original lacquer. The horn was overhauled in our shop about five years ago and barely played. These horns have a unique voice, very different from contemporary saxophones. Come in and try it!



Baritone Saxophones



Martin Handcraft "Typewriter" Baritone Saxophone #96345



$2,625



Here's a baritone with style! The Martin Handcraft Master baritone is know as the Typewriter Model because all of the keys have a round pearl touch piece, reminiscent of the old Underwood typewriters. Serial #96345 dates its manufacture to 1929. This horn was relacquered at some point, but it doesn't seem to have affected the playability or its enormous sound. Neck may not be original as it shows signs of being adapted to fit the mechanism. Again, doesn't seem to affect sound or playability. Comes in a newer, form fitted hard case.

Yamaha YAS-52 Alto Saxophone



SOLD



The 52 was Yamaha's intermediate alto for many years. It was slightly re-designed a few years back and is now call the YAS-480. This horn is definitely more sophisticated than the entry level YAS-23. It has a high F# key, tilt lever low Bb key and modern front F lever. The action is crisp and the pitch is superb. A great choice for the woodwind doubler or advancing student.
