Description Brand: KING Country/Region of Manufacture: United States Skill Level: PRO Era: 40's Model: ZEPHYR Exact Year: 1946
You are looking at a 1946 original King Zephyr with the original mother of pearl on the keys. I don't know anything about saxophones so keep that in mind. I purchased this from a very old gentleman that lives down the street from me. Please look at the pictures to see the condition. It looks well used but really is full of large dents. It has lots of finish that is peeling and a few of the keys stick. I'm not sure on condition of pads, the cork looks old to me. It has the neck and mouthpiece and what looks like a period correct case. Please don't purchase if you are looking for a nice looking sax. On the other hand if you like restoring these this is what your looking for. The case is really in poor shape but functions.
