Gorgeous sounding 1926 Buescher True Tone alto. This was originally a plain brass horn that was lacquered at some point, most likely at the Buescher factory, judging by the iconic dark color and the quality of the work. Bell engravings are still vivid. This horn has all of the Series IV features, like the front F and the roller G# key, and it is playing great. The case is very nice; it looks like a Buffet case from the 50's, and the horn fits in it perfectly. Please check out the video below, made on 4/8/17. (Apologies for the audio quality-recorded on an iPhone.) Horn is playing very evenly up and down with no issues. Priced to sell.  https://youtu.be/sQ3O9iC13O4
