We always like to keep a nice variety of vintage saxes available for our loyal customers.  Due to increased demand of vintage horns, our inventory has been greatly reduced.  We are working hard to locate quality instruments for our customers and will soon have more to offer on this web page.  If you have any questions or requests please go to our contact page and use the email link to drop us a line.

We have a collection of beginner instruments that are for sale as well as the professional instruments you see on our web page.  If you are in need of a beginner instrument, please use the contact page or call for availability and prices.  We have several flutes and clarinets as well as a couple of saxes and trumpets.

If you see something you like, I will entertain offers.

FOR SALE: Martin Master "Typewriter" Gold Lacquer Alto Saxophone- Made in 1929, it has been a favorite of jazzers for years.  Right a way, you will notice that this alto is heavier than most, which is typical of Martin horns.  The heavier brass gives this alto the characteristic sensual sound and projection that all Martins have. Originally called "The Master" it earned the name "Typewriter" because every key terminates in a round pearl instead of the elongated keys that you find on the side and palm keys of others. This horn was obviously cherished.  The gold lacquer finish is at 95+%.  This is the easiest blowing alto I have ever played handling the low Bb to the high F with minimum air.  The altissimo register speaks equally as well.  This horn comes with a nice, soft, gig  bag and a Couf mouthpiece. Serial Number-96655. $1200.00

FOR SALE: King Zephyr Alto Saxophone in Silver Plate- This rare, silver plated zephyr, is a lovely and striking horn.  Made in 1936 this was and still is a professional quality horn.  The left and right spats are square and it comes with a double socket neck and 3 position neck strap ring.  It has screw adjustments on the auxiliary f key and the low keys. The finish is 99% and will play great with a little work and a repad.  White roo pads with rounded silver plated resonators will make this alto absolutely gorgeous.  It comes in the original case with the original King mouthpiece.  It even has the end plug for the double socket neck, which is rarely seen these days.  Serial Number: 188632. $2000.00

FOR SALE: Conn Silver Plated Straight Chu Berry Soprano Saxophone with gold wash bell.  Like all the great Conn Chus this soprano has rolled tone holes, nail file g# key and newly designed palm keys.
