General description : One of the last 10M saxophones with the rolled tone holes. Original lacquer, with the usual lacquer wear. All locking screws are present. Very desirable, and lots of professional musicians play one of these 10M´s due to their fantastic sound. Tons of information can be found online on this famous Ladyface model.

Condition : The sax was overhauled by it´s previous owner in 2010: we did an additional full maintenance check in August 2020. The sax was disassembled completely, cork renewed where required, rods polished, new oil and adjustment of the keywork. A couple of repairs were done also : resolder of octave pip and quick F stud, install a new bow reinforcement piece and remove some dents on bow section. The sax is not abused and in great condition again. The engraving is well visible and the sax has a nice vintage look. The current pads (no resonators) are in good condition, no need for replacement. Tone holes are in original condition.
