Vintage Buescher True Tone Bb Tenor Saxophone
$995 sold

  A rare mid 1920's vintage 'TrueTone' model Bb tenor saxophone made by Buescher of USA. It is gold plate over silver plate over brass and is in good condition for its age, with a resoldered post, but no dents or dent repairs - nothing that materially impacts looks or playability. The gold plate is faded, due to age and use, but still evident on the key cups and low contact areas.
​  Its been disassembled, cleaned, swedged and countersunk (to tighten the mechanism) posts aligned, tone holes leveled, rods trued, all tan leather pads (with brown plastic resos) installed, and key corks replaced as needed, reassembled and adjusted for optimal play-ability. I've reversed the spring on the low Alt Eb (as most people don't want to use it) but it can be rendered usable again by reversing the spring and adjusting the mechanism. The horn is a really good player, with warm, spread 'vintage American' tone, good intonation, and comfortable key work: I'm very pleased with the condition and play-ability of this saxophone! Comes with vintage case in solid condition.
