For sale a very rare and special alto , only 2300 were ever made of these horns which offer a less complex but basically the same saxophone than the Leblanc Rationale and Semi-Rationale .
The horn is in good general state but it would probably need a good service or even an overhaul (although the pads are in very good state) since it is not playing well at the moment. To be restored to fully original state the guard screws would have to be replaced (someone has put some non-original screws in there and I don't know why) and the thumb rest for the left hand would have to be replaced with the original plastic one (both of these features are present on other Vito horns so it is not something exclusive of this rare horn). I originally bought this horn for myself but after careful consideration I decided to sell because I need a new car and the money would go towards some of it.
