Selmer Sopranino case For trade or sale
So my new Buscher nino came in a very nice Selmer case. It's better than the one I was borrowing, but unfortunately it's also a little bigger. The one I had just barely fit into my carry on and I'd love to be able to get another that size. If you have an original Buescher nino case in good condition that'd be ideal, otherwise, if you have any minimally sized nino cases let me know, maximum length of 50 cm. Depending I'd maybe want some cash on top of the trade. Asking €300 Buyer pays shipping from Belgium or Netherlands... I might be willing to ship to USA but the buyer would be responsible for all tariffs and duties and whatever shipping would cost. I think BPost doesn't ship to the USA right now so it would need to be DHL or...

Alto Yamaha 62 purple logo for sale
Very much sought after. Selling my beloved alto saxophone Yamaha 62 PURPLE LOGO. Great sound. Comes with original mouthpiece and case. I learned to play the sax with an alto, yet I always dreamed of playing the soprano, i have bought a soprano now and I’m totally in love with it. I haven’t played the alto in a while and I don’t see myself going back to it anytime soon. Hence selling this beauty. Collection from London zone 1. Any questions, please ask.

Yamaha 4C and Bari Esprit Tenor mouthpieces - All proceeds to Special Needs music education charities
UPDATE: I am donating three two 'beginner' tenor mouthpieces to the Café and all proceeds will go to Pete's charity. Selling as I now have a Selmer Soloist E which suit me perfectly. These would be ideal for those with an unbranded beginners' mpc seeking something better. Xmas is coming......! Yamaha 4C (0.071"), came with my YTS-25. Very good condition but has some light teeth marks from the previous owner - I've always used a mouthpiece patch. An ideal starter mouthpiece. About £40+ new, on offer for £20 Now £10 plus P&P. Vito branded Yamaha 4C, came with my Vito YTS-23. Very good condition. £10 plus P&P. WITHDRAWN Bari Esprit (0.085") Round chamber rather than horseshoe as on the 4C. Easy blowing and versatile. Hardly used. £10...

Alto sax mute - chinese copy.
Chinese copy of sax mute - probably have the cover + spare neoprene sleeves knocking about somewhere. Electronic part was working last time I checked but very noisy. Bought for ~160 few years ago and has been used less than 10 times. Personally I don't get on with it and it has followed me around for 5+ house moves. At the same time, it would be a shame to chuck it in the bin if someone can get some use from it. Keen to get it to a new home asap :) due to lack of space.

Grassi Professional 2000 tenor
for sale my I.M. Grassi Professional 2000 tenor. This tenor has been played very little and it is virtually in mint condition: no dents anywhere, some tiny scratches (but hard to spot), you will struggle to find another in this beautiful condition. All original including pads, which are still supple and virtually new. Gold lacquered keywork (usually it is nickel plated on these) and no F# key. Pick up and play test preferable but willing to post at cost once funds are cleared.

Straight soprano case for sale
Hi, I bought this case in haste (and error) from eBay - hopefully it will be useful for someone as I repent at leisure! It was advertised as being a Yamaha case....but it's clearly not and I'm not sure what brand it is! It did not fit the YSS-475 II I bought it for. It measures approximately 58cm from bottom of bell to top of neck. 240 x 135 x 625mm outer dimensions ignoring handles (which are on top and side). It's in fairly good condition but you be the judge. Happy to take questions. £30 plus postage or collect nr Milton Keynes. Regards Matt

Harry Hartmann Fiberreed for tenor - used once and disinfected
This is an older version with a sort of rubbery plastic bit that goes on the back to make you sound better. Don't ask me why. Some people swear by these, I swear at them "das blatt" sounds enough like a swear word so aptly named IMO. But you may love it. This is probably a 2.5 but it doesn't say anywhere, couldn't have worn off as I haven't actually used it aprt from once and I didn't like it.

2025 AUGUST PRICE DROP To €195-- Vintage Berg Larsen S.S. Scoopbill 100/2/Offset SMS Tenor
This is an excellent playing Berg Stainless Scoop Bill Vintage Tenor mouthpiece, 100/2/Offset SMS with the straight drop baffle. It's in superb condition considering that it was made sometime in the 1970s as the side to side mill marks visible on the table indicate. The table is flat and unmarked except for some minor water corrosion that is purely cosmetic and does not effect it's performance. The tip and side rails are all perfect and the bite plate has no tooth marks because it has always been played with a patch. It comes with its original ligature and cap both also in pristine condition. I have looked on eBay, Reverb and many sax shops and most Bergs like this are going for well upwards of 300 dollars/euros. I feel that compared...

AKG C12VR microphone
This is probably the best and most useful/versatile microphone in existence. Comes with full service history This has been kept in a smoke free professional environment and has complete service history by (A) Arbiter Group PLC (Feb 2000) and (B) Studiocare. The Studiocare service was carried out in June 2025 prior to selling and has not been used since testing. All documentation is supplied. Complete with power supply (also serviced) cable, pop shield, shock mount. The shock mount has had the O-rings replaced with very slightly larger rubber rings so it fits very tightly (a good thing) It comes with original flight case which has some slight rust spots as it was kept in a loft (the case only not the microphone Blurb: The AKG...

Grafton Acrylic alto saxophone in superb condition
Not often you see one of this in this condition. Many people would probably call this "almost mint", but you can see a few minor little things and as I'm scrupulously aware that the word mint means brand new, still in its wrapping, that many people throw that term around when they shouldn't. But this is in very good nick, and that makes it rare. The slightest ding in a brass horn can be invisibly repaired. The slightest ding in a Grafton alto means a big nasty crack. That's what makes this Grafton so rare - it has no actual damage beyond some teeny lacquer spots on some keys. I had the pads replaced, not because they were old (they were almost new looking) but because Stephen Howard persuaded me to (he will deny that) as the...

Joe Walton adjustable mouthpiece with 5 x different baffles
[EDIT: old thread but just moved to Yardsale as I am selling all my stuff ready to downsize houses.] Reluctantly selling the Joe Walton adjustable mouthpiece. It has a lovely tone (almost as nice as a PPT. I don't get the different baffles to sound very different, I've kind of got used to getting a certain sound. I have made a short video to demonstrate how the same mouthpiece sounds with five different baffles. Yes, it's the famous (not really) Walton adjustable Mouthpiece system. Five baffles screw in (and out ). They range from low baffle to very high. This video is a bit of a rough draft as I cannot play to the best of my ability at the moment, just doing with the first phrase of that tune we all know and love Take Five...
