Pretty nice old Chu Berry tenor.  Many pros prefer the Chu's to the 10M for its sound and slightly easier keywork. This old girl is a nice re-lacquer that shows some wear. Many folks are surprised by a pro horn that has almost no engraving. They don't, don't know why. But, you can see all there is in the next to last picture. The maker's name and location. That's it.

Came to us recently overhauled. Don't know which shop but it looks and plays like they know and like Chus. Too bad young Mr. Berry died in that car crash. He was poised to give Lester a run for his money to be considered America's number one tenor man. But, if you get this or another Chu Berry tenor you really ought to download some sides of Chu with Cab Calloway's band. The Cat could play. I mean, they named a horn after him.
