Condition: In good used, and great playing condition.
Age: 1921
C.G. Conn Ltd made some of the finest saxophones in the world prior to the USA joining WW2 in 1941. The most famous of these were the M series, 6m alto, 10m tenor, and 12m baritone. The New wonder series, version 1 and 2, were their predecessors and, although they are not as well known or sought after they offer a great value entrance into the world of vintage American saxophones.
In terms of ergonomics they feel very different to modern horns. They feel small under the fingers and do take a bit of getting used to. However; they sound amazing. They are, in my opinion, some of the finest sound horns ever made. If you can get around the key-work you will be richly rewarded.
This one has the serial number 96XXX and was made in 1921. It is finished in its original silver plate which is in wonderful condition. It benefits from a recent full re-pad and overhaul.
As with all of our instruments, trials are both recommended and encouraged. Please book an appointment or get in touch if you would like any more information.
