For sale, my C.G. Conn Ltd, "New wonder" soprano saxophone in Bb, low (Modern) pitch A=440Hz,
just had a light overhaul and recork, in good playing order with a mix of old & new pads,
plays well throughout the range, with that beautiful, rich, 'open' old American soprano sound.
all the rolled tones holes are in very good, flat condition, no sign of damage, filing or repair,
body is the original nickel (i think) plating which is nearly 100% present and in very nice condition ,
keywork is chrome plated,( i think) , and this plating is quite heavily worn on some key cups and rods - see pics...
no bends, kinks, or repairs that i can see, sax is in good, immediate playing order, i'll try to record a video in the next day or two. in original case which has busted handle :-\
Lovely horn, but i'll stick with my (very similar) Pan American in silver plate and Yamaha 62R,
so this can find a new owner, cause i have TOO MUCH STUFF!
price £750 , includes postage / courier to Uk address, and a 10% donation to Pete's charity.
videos in a day or two, i hope. any questions & pic requests answered here or via PM, or ask for my tel number. ;-)
