Vintage Vito/Yamaha Made for Martin Alto Saxophone in Gold Lacquer. Serial #006941

 

This is a an older Martin alto saxophone, serial number 006941. It is not one you see often and was actually made in Japan by Yamaha for Martin. The sax is very similar to the older Yamaha 31 model. This would be a great alto for the starting student or really anyone looking for a well built sax for a good price. 

 

This particular instrument is in good physical condition showing normal cosmetic wear for a horn that has seen plenty of past use. Aside from normal use the horn has never received major past repair. The body tube, bow and bell are all in great shape as is the original neck. 

 

The alto is currently playing down to a low Bb through leaks on all of the original pads and materials. While it is currently playing the sax is going to ultimately need to be overhauled before it will be readying for any serious playing. At this time we have a lot of great items in need of repair and can not get around to them all. As such we are selling this one in as is condition. 

 

Ships with original wood hard case.
