Buescher True Tone Series IV Tenor Saxophone Original Gold Plate Good Pads 212844

This is a beautiful, original gold plate Buescher True Tone Series IV tenor saxophone with roller G#. It has all of its snaps intact, and the pads have been replaced not too long ago. It plays well on the current job, which was done before I bought the horn. When I say gold plate, most people think I mean lacquer, but this is actual gold plate, like would cost you $4500 to have done to any tenor saxophone today. This horn came from a top quality collection of vintage American saxophones, and I have not seen a better example of a late True Tone tenor. It has had a few small dents removed from the back of the bow, leaving some marks there, and there are a couple of dings inside the bell that are hard to see. The thumb hook is also resoldered, I think, but I can only guess at that because the lacquer over the gold plate is missing in that spot, but the plating is all still present.

It is pretty uncommon to find an almost 90 year-old saxophone still looking anything nearly this nice. This is a really fantastic example of a True Tone. With the durable, tarnish-resistant gold plate, it’s very hard to beat for the price. Let alone with good pads. It’s fantastic.

Only one available!
