VINTAGE HOLTON-IDEAL 1937 ALTO SAX MADE IN ELKHORN WISCONSIN SERIAL NUMBER 121785 READY TO PLAY. THIS SAXOPHONE IS IN UNBELIEVABLE CONDITION! ASIDE FROM A FEW BLEMISHES IN THE LACQUER IT\'S ALMOST LIKE BRAND NEW! EVEN THE CASE IS GRADE A ORIGINAL CONDITION! I\'VE NEVER SEEN A SAX IN SUCH AMAZING CONDITION UNLESS IT WAS COMPLETELY OVERHAULED. THE DARK HONEY COLORED LACQUER IS WONDERFUL TO LOOK AT AND ADMIRE. THE SOUND IS SO SWEET AND MELLOW LIKE YOU\'D EXPECT FROM A VINTAGE HORN, BUT MORE CHILLED OUT THAN LET\'S SAY A CONN CHU BERRY WOULD SOUND. THE ACTION ON THE KEYS IS SO SMOOTH THAT IT\'LL FEEL LIKE YOUR FINGERS ARE DANCING WHEN YOU PLAY. THE PADS SEAL BUT ARE VERY OLD AND THE SAX WILL NEED A NEW PAD OR TWO EVENTUALLY. THE MOTHER OF PEARL IS BEAUTIFUL AND JUST SHOWS THE QUALITY OF CRAFTSMANSHIP THAT VINTAGE INSTRUMENT MAKERS PRIDED THEMSELVES ON AGES AGO. THE NECK FEATURES A MICRO TUNER AND I HAD NEW SYNTHETIC \"CORK\" PUT ON RECENTLY. INSTRUMENT DOES NOT COME WITH A MOUTHPIECE. WHETHER YOU\'RE A COLLECTOR, A PLAYER OR BOTH YOU\'LL BE PROUD TO OWN SUCH AN INCREDIBLE SAX. ALL REASONABLE OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED.
