Description
This is a vintage 1925 CG CONN CHU-BERRY TENOR SAXOPHONE . All pads were replaced with new ones not so long ago. After the pads were replaced this saxophone was used very little therefore all the pads are in pristine condition. Now this saxophone has been checked at every point by a very experienced technician and technically it is in great condition, ready to play straight out of the case. At some point the instrument was re-lacquered and in my opinion this was done by the factory as the lacquer is really high quality and the whole instrument looks beautiful. This instrument sounds wonderful throughout the scale as you would expect from a Conn Chu-Berry saxophone. It comes with a modern P.mauriat case and neck strap. This is a very solid case in very good condition and very clean inside and out. The only small problem is a partially broken zipper in one of the side pockets. The malfunctioning zipper does not close on a section of approx. 2 inches, which however does not limit access to this pocket. Please see my last picture. Main zipper works as it should and everything else is fine. No mouthpiece and the sax stand is not included as well. The sax stand is not included, no mouthpiece.
