Check out my other items. Be sure to add me to your favorites list. His listing is for a vintage Conn tenor saxophone. It is a New Wonder series I, also commonly known as a pre-Chu Berry model. The serial number is 88, xxx, indicating a c. It has rolled tone holes, a front F button, a G# trill key, and a forked Eb mechanism. This sax is in excellent playing condition. It was fully dis-assembled, the body was washed, the keys were wiped down, old key oil was replaced, and it was re-assembled and adjusted. A few key corks were replaced as needed, and general adjustments were made so that all pads are sealing properly with a light touch. The pads are in excellent condition. They look relatively new, and all are matching in style, with plastic button resonators. The leather is soft and supple. I would estimate they have at least 75% of their lifespan remaining. This sax plays great from top to bottom, as you can hear in the demo video linked below. See the product in action. This sax is in very good physical condition. The body is straight. The neck looks like it might have had a touch of pull down corrected in the past, but it is in fine condition now. There are a few minor dings on the bow, but no significant dents. I don’t see any re-soldered joints. There is minimal mechanical wear to the key-work, and all of the rollers are turning freely. Alas, the lacquer is not original, but nor is it a re-lacquer. This horn is actually silver plated underneath the lacquer. It probably had the lacquer applied in the 1950’s or 60’s, when silver plated instruments went out of style. The coverage of the lacquer is nearly 100%. There is just a tiny bit of silver peeking through on the tops of some posts, and the edge of the rim of the bell, but it is barely noticeable. It has a nice vintage look to it. Please note that this horn just has the Conn logo, and no decorative engraving, which is quite common for that time period. This horn does come in its original case. The case is in very good condition for its age, although it is still a vintage case, so you’ll probably want something more modern for day to day use. The original is solid, with minimal wear. It is clean and odor free inside. It even still has its original handle! There are no other accessories included, except for the original end plug. Please feel free to message me with any questions! Thanks again for looking! The item “1922 CONN TENOR SAXOPHONE NEW WONDER pre-CHU BERRY withRTH in PLAYING CONDITION” is in sale since Tuesday, February 18, 2020.

Vintage Eb Columbia Sousaphone by Harry Jay in Fair playing shape
Up for sale is a really interesting Eb sousaphone made by H. Jay in the early-mid 1900s! It does show some signs of mild dent removal, and a few solder touch ups over the years, but it still looks/plays remarkably well for its age, and has plenty of music left in it! Jay manufactured brass instruments in Chicago from 1910 to 1946, and used’Columbia’ as a trade name. Serial number is 9,5XX, making this either a very early model, or one of only a very few that were made, compared to most manufacturers at the time. Harry Jays claim to fame was what he patented as the reverse leadpipe. Basically, one of the Main tuning slide. Inner legs comes out from the body of the horn rather than both legs on the slide being inner legs. The back of the bell (which is 24 in diameter) has a beautiful floral engraving of the Make/Model. The gooseneck thats on it now appears to be just a steel or silver plated brass pipe that has been bent to shape so that it could be used without tuning bits. It seems to work well enough as is, but it definitely looks improvised/DIY. Any brass tech should be able to whip up a custom-made neck (or find an old one that fits) pretty easily if the next owner does want to replace it. All valves have been oiled and move smooth and quick! All slides have been greased and can be pulled by hand! Several solder touch ups as pictured but every joint looks rock solid! Theres plenty of patina all over the silver plating on this horn, but it looks good as is too, so the next owner can decide whether to get give it a good polish! There are a couple spots that have been polished, like around the engraving; and the guard brace on the back of the bell has been polished almost entirely to the shiny silver plate underneath all the patina. The inside of the bell is in gold laquer, and shows a fair bit of wear consistent with its age, but still looks good overall. Several minor dings, dents, and scuffs as pictured. Its also a pretty heavy horn for an Eb, with a very thick gauge brass and lots of beefy bracing/guards, that comes in at about 25 Lbs when assembled body is about 15 Lbs, the bell is about 10 Lbs. It’s certainly not a pristine horn, but all around a solid and really interesting piece of history that has been maintained pretty well. Perfect for a player wanting a unique horn or for connoisseurs of old brass! The item “Vintage Eb Columbia Sousaphone by Harry Jay in Fair playing shape” is in sale since Sunday, August 19, 2018.
