Artikel: Conn 10M Ladyface

General description : A very nice example of the 10M saxophones with the straight tone holes. This is a very nice professional relacquer, with normal 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 completely overhauled (with Aaron Barnard brass resonators) by its previous owner in 2021, so the pads are in almost new condition. The horn is not abused: no serious dents, repairs or damage. There´s one resolder on the low Bb keyguard post, and 2 tiny dings on the main body (hardly visible). The Ladyface engraving is well visible and the sax has a nice vintage dark-honey look. The original neck fits perfectly, without pulldown! Keywork is all original, including the cellulose rollers and locking screws.
It comes with a black vintage case, in fair condition and fully functional.
