Description
Up for auction is a vintage professional 1949 H. N. White King Super 20 tenor saxophone. The pads and corks are in fair to good condition and some adjustments/regulation will be required for good playing condition or new pads installed for optimal performance. This tenor saxophone has full pearls, a double socket sterling silver neck and has visible bell/key engraving. There are no major dents present and several minor dings don't affect performance. The tenor sax has scratches throughout from normal use and almost all of the lacquer is missing. Some of the upper and lower stack key pearls have noticeable wear. The matching neck/body serial number is in the low 298,xxx range, which dates the year of manufacture to approximately 1949. This has the potential to be a real gem with some TLC.
