    This is a super clean silver plated Conn Transitional tenor saxophone SN# 256xxx with split bell keys and naked lady engraving. This particular iteration of the transitional Conn is very rare and highly desirable. The naked lady engraving is almost always on the 10M-style horns, but there was just a short period in which they still made split bell key versions but put the new engraving on them. As I already mentioned, the sound is really big on this horn. As soon as you start playing, it comes alive, and the body tube resonates in your hands. The intonation is pretty good, and the not-so-comfortable keywork will fade into insignificance because you will love the sound so much. There is not too much more to be said about this horn, except that whoever gets it is going to be one happy person.

      This horn has no past damage and no past repairs besides touching up the silver plating on the keywork. It has a fresh full overhaul by Matt Stohrer, and it feels amazing. Even if you are a Conn fanatic, you may never have felt pad work that is so nice and snappy on rolled tone holes. It has nice firm pads with high-end ResoTech-style oversized domed brass resonators.

The intonation is pretty good, and the not-so-comfortable keywork will fade into insignificance because you will love the sound so much. There is not too much more to be said about this horn, except that whoever gets it is going to be one happy person. The pictures don’t do it justice – it’s much more beautiful than even that in person.
