Description
 


This is a vintage 1940 Conn 6M VIII Naked Lady Alto Sax. Made in Elkhart, IN. Nice, professional horn is a candidate for restoration. It will need replacement of pads, springs, cork, & felt, plus repair of a ding to be playable. The ding is toward the top of the instrument & is causing a bent rod & a pad is not covering the hole, please see photo's. There are a couple of minor dings & wear as seen. Bow & bell are in nice shape. Neck is in two pieces for some reason & will need repair or welding. Case with blue interior, working latches, in good condition, is included, I believe it is original. Serial #291803 dates it to 1940.  Shipping is $25.00 to the lower 48 USA. Please contact me for more info.
