Buescher "Truetone" Goldplated

This Buescher Truetone has an exquisite engraving
that makes it so special.

Besides that it is in a very good and playing
condition. The early Bueschers may not be
suited for all kinds of music but if it is your sound
you will have an instrument for your life.

This picture makes a closer look to the engravings possible:
Just click on the picture and there you are!

We took this picture to show you the place where
the registration number can be found.
That dates this instrument to be built around 1926.

Grafton Plastic Alto Saxophone

What can be said about this instrument:
When someone puts them up for sale
they're gone within a flick of a switch.
Numerous players are affected by its
looks and sound.....
This instrument is in a ready to play condition
and is one of the few leftovers in this world
in this condition.
Even the thumbrest is in a like new condition.
No scratches, marks or pits of any kind on this
instrument.
A nice shot of the lower keyguards and the companies
markings. as can be seen on the right.

Hardly unbelievable as there are ony a few
Grafton saxophones left in a condition like this.

All Keyguards are in pristine condition.
No damage of any kind, just flawless complete!

Though the laquer is showing some user wear here and there,
pads and the whole playing condition is in perfect
working order.

padless construction is visible which makes
this instrument a real collectors item.
