Conn 30M Tenor Saxophone in Silver

Description

This is a rare Conn 30M Tenor saxophone in silver plate. It has the special engraving that only the silver plated 30M’s have, which is different from either of the two main patterns that the lacquered 30M’s had (pre and post 285xxx approximately). One big difference with the plated ones is the multiple pentagons above the lady engraving. I got this horn from the original owner, who lives just outside Elkhart, IN, whose wife special-ordered it from Conn. I have seen other unusual, special ordered Conns that had no serial number, and this one fits that bill. There is no stamp at all under the thumb hook, and no sign of anything having been there. Cosmetically, virtually all of the original silver is intact. This horn needs a full overhaul and is currently waiting in line for one by Matt Stohrer. It is currently listed as-is until it is overhauled. At that point, I’ll update the pictures and this horn will be incredible! It ships in the original case, which is in very good condition.
