Description
Up for auction is a 1927 Conn " Chu Berry" Alto Sax innear mint condition
. I believe that this horn was stored in a closet or under a bed for most of its 94 year life . The condition is exceptional and the silver finish is all original . The bell is a bright gold . Even the normal wear points show virtually no age (
see the pics of the thumb hook , usually 1st to wear
) No dents or scratches that I can see. I would give this one a 10 out of 10 ,, but it is 94 yrs old ,, so lets give it a 9.8
It has been professionally re padded and set up and is ready to play
.
Included is the original mouthpiece , ligature ,and cap.
Also included is the original warranty card and manual (rare)
The case is in really good shape. It looks like it may have had a piece of the vinyl replaced at one point , but it was very well done , and you really have to look to find it.
The pictures do not really do justice to this beautiful piece.
Note
An ebay member pointed out that the serial # on the warranty card is one digit off from the one on the sax. I had not noticed that before . My guess is that the wrong card was placed in the sax at the factory. :)
