Description: Up for auction is a used and rare professional 1936 Conn 26M "CONNQUEROR" alto saxophone with an overslung neck and swivel thumbrest. This alto sax has been shop adjusted for good play condition and plays fine on older Conn Res-o-tone pads. All keys move freely and the pads are in fair condition(pads should be replaced for optimal performance). There are no major body dents present and several minor dings don't affect performance. These are some of the nicest feeling Conn's ever produced and many keys have solid sterling silver touch pieces. They have adjustments on almost every key, so you can really personalize them. These are amazing saxophones due to their immense amount of engineering. The overslung socket neck is in good condition(no serial number is visible) and has no signs of pull down. This alto saxophone has minor scratches throughout from normal use and lacquer wear is minimal, with approximately 90-95% of lacquer intact(possibly not original). The bell engraving is detailed and the serial number is in the 269,xxx range, which dates the year of manufacturer to approximately 1936. Included is a used non-original Conn wood shell alto saxophone case(latches function as intended, interior is sound, exterior shows wear and no strong odors are noticeable). There is mouthpiece or body socket end plug included. Winning U.S. bidder is to pay $120.00 for standard ground shipping, handling and insurance.
