1932-1933 Conn Transitional Alto Saxophone. Serial 252xxxLacquer is a gorgeous aged tobacco color.A year ago I had it gone through with new Chocolate Roo Pads w/ flat metal resonators, new felt, cork, adjusted..Plays beautifully! Key action is superb.Comes with what looks like an era conn mouthpiece, cover, ligature, neck-strap. Mouthpiece is in good condition. However the neck cork is set up for modern Meyer style larger opening mouthpieces...these old vintage mouthpiece are too tight and won't fit.Micro-tuner works great. Has one small dent in the bow, and a small dent at lower thumb rest....refer to photos.Comes with an aftermarket soft case.I really hate to sell it...but it has just been setting here.Would absolutely make a great vintage player!Thanks for looking!!
