beuscher elckhart true tone low pitch tenor saxophone keys

All of the Buescher True Tone models had soldered tone holes, split bell keys and the early models had a double octave mechanism. Many folks will say (with some foundation) that a TT of that era is not the greatest choice for a beginner to start on.and that view has some merit.as horns of that era generally have more intonational flex/response based upon the blower/player than, say, a reputable modern horn.īut given you have a couple years under your belt already.that may be less of an issue in your instance. Serial numbers: 1 2499 / 2500 265522 The Buescher True Tone series were the first saxophones made by Gus Buescher, with the pre-1904 models being very close in design to the original Adolph Sax instrument. (I am assuming you are talking about an Alto ?) The latter, however, are not sought after due to the odd ergos on the pinky cluster.so those don't command high prices. The former are excellent nsidered by many (myself included) to be the BEST split-bell key Altos ever made.
