Conn Transitional Alto
Original Silver
SN# 260xxx

This is a beautiful, and great-playing Conn transitional alto SN#260xxx in silver plate. It has no damage, and the pads are in great shape and feel good. It has very little wear to the silver - just on the pants guard and a few touch points. There are no dents or past repairs at all. The original neck (stamped M) is in excellent shape and has not been pulled down. All in all, this is a super-clean transitional alto that also has good pads!

These horns are perhaps the most desirable Conn altos for tone, with a bigger and even warmer sound than the later 6M's but with the fast 6M keywork that everybody loves. This horn can easily fill a room, but it also has a straight-ahead and somewhat focused sound that allows you to keep it under control quite well if you want to. The intonation is good as well. There's a reason why people love these transitional altos so much - because they're great! If you're looking for a great lead alto for jazz or big band, it would be hard to do better than this!
