Yanagisawa "Martin" Curved Soprano Sax
Estimated price for orientation: 1 799 $
Category: Saxophones
Class:
Description Brand: Martin
Serial number 00102506. Plays very well and remarkably well in tune for a soprano. Expressive saxophone sound rather than the more oboe-like straight sopranos.In fair shape, numerous scratches in the finish. Hasn't been played in the past 4 years but had an overhaul then and the pads and cork still appear to be in good shape. Always kept in its case. Bought used in 1987 from consignment at a local saxophone repair shop. Played a lot between 87 and 92 but seldom gigged and mostly untouched in its case since then. Cork and pads seem in good shape but are probably in need of whatever the repair person does to them. Includes original case, neck, neck strap, a silver mouthpiece labeled "France" and a gold Selmer mouthpiece. Includes much of the paraphernalia that comes with a sax, cork grease, extra reeds, reed safe, etc.
