Buescher Aristocrat Series I alto saxophone 1935 Original Lacquer
Here is an early Buescher Series I Aristocrat alto sax. For many, this is their best model and I agree. The tone is rich and pleasing. Along with the Conn's and Selmers of that era, these are the best altos of that time period.This is original lacquer that has aged very dark and pretty unusual for a Buescher. I've had a good tech and an expert dealer both examine the horn in person and they agree it is original. The guy I'm selling for bought it as original.Its a mix of pads, not the snap ins, it has been professionally desnapped and recently serviced and everything is up and running very well. The body has been well cared for and this is a steal for a playing original lacquer horn. I can include a generic mouthpiece, and all the trimmings on request so it can arrive ready to play.Case is original , both case and horn are odor free. The right side latch is missing the button and requires a small point like a paper clip end to pop it open, it latches securely.
