Conn 16m - Freshly Overhauled - #H50,897 

   

Here's one of the greatest bargains in all of vintage saxophones. The 16M is actually a 10M with slightly simplified keywork and simple but identifying engraving. Called the "Shooting Star" series, these Elkhart made horns are both true Conns and true vintage horns. Get all the sound and pride of ownership in this rare silver plated edition in very good condition. The pads have lots of life left and the  horn plays well top to bottom. Unfortunately some lout attempted to scratch his initials into the bell but did not succeed in damaging the overall apperance of the instrument in that his vandalism, seen in pictures below, hardly shows up at all.

 There are no dents or neck pulldowns and no re-solders that I can find. In all this is a very clean 16M Shooting Star Elkhart, Indiana, built horn with professional quality throughout.

This horn has been freshly overhauled and re-paded by Borodi Music of Cleveland. George Borodi performs a lot of our finer work and is a wizard at making the old instruments play better than they ever have. The buyer of this horn is lucky because this 16M is not just some old school horn barely hanging on but rather a classic Conn that has had benefit of the hand of a master. Twenty seconds playing and you will see.

All our horns now ship in a ProTec style, zipper closure, hard sided, foam case  unless otherwise instructed. We recommend this case very highly and we love to ship in them because then we are confident there will be no damage.

However, if you feel that you must have an original, period trunk case (despite smells, condition, questionable protection for the instrument, etc.) we have them  available at no additional charge.

 

WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT IF YOU ARE SERIOUS ABOUT THIS OR ANY OF OUR HORNS THAT YOU CALL US OR EMAIL SO THAT WE MAY DISCUSS THE INSTRUMENT AND ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.

WE SHIP OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES ONLY BY FEDERAL EXPRESS, NO EXCEPTIONS.

NO RETURNS ARE ALLOWED ON INTERNATIONAL SALES.

WE ARE A SMALL BUT VERY HIGH QUALITY SELLER OF WIND INSTRUMENTS. WE GUARANTEE SATISFACTION WITH OUR INSTRUMENTS 100% OR YOUR MONEY BACK.
