Firstly, I apologise to members who enquired about this very horn a few years ago when I put it up for sale then had to recede the sale due to unexpected work come in. I said that I'd keep your details to contact you again if I ever looked to sell it again. Unfortunately, those details were misplaced when I moved.
The T880 has a great reputation as being very similar to that Rolls Royce of saxes that sell for very many £££££. I've never owned one of those Rolls Royce's, only played them on occasion, so cannot confirm how similar. Perhaps it's more of a US players view? Although the centred tone was very similar, granted.
It's in very good condition for such a saxophone. Guaranteed no work needed. All pads are good, no leaks. There are some scratches in the usual places (sling hook, near the belt buckle area...for example). There's a small ding on the top side of the bell which doesn't show up in the photos.
The case is a SKB case, with a few markings on the exterior - I'll clean those up!
You're more than welcome to come give it a blow here at my studio, in Hitchin, Herts.
I would rather sell in person, but will sell also via courier if need be.
Payment welcome through Paypal if you're willing to cover the fees - (Jeanette, I'm assuming that is okay to request this... I remember there being a thread regarding Paypal a while back, but I can't seem to find it for reference).
If you'd like more particular photos etc., please contact me.
£1,100 - with minimum 5% donation.
