This is a fine example of a Buescher 400 top hat and cane-engraved tenor saxophone #353XXX, with gold Norton springs and a complete set of Snap In Pads, manufactured in 1954.  This sax is in good, clean condition for it's age and it is set up to good playing adjustment on older, yet flexible pads.  However, some players will always want a sax personally to their taste by their own technician, so buyers will need to figure that expense into the price BEFORE bidding.  Normal wear, speckling, scratches in it's original laquer finish, especially on the neck which also has a patch, no effect on the sound.  This sax is the presence, response and depth Buescher saxophone production. Comes in it's original case in good condition, and the sax will be very carefully packaged for shipping.  
This great vintage sax is offered at 99 cents starting bid and no reserve, to the highest bidder!
