Description

This is a vintage Silver King Zephyr alto SN# 223xxx with double socket neck that just came in. It also has the three ring strap hook so you can change how the horn balances on the strap. It has an older repad, and the pads are still sealing. It has been mostly in the case since it was repadded several years ago, as you can tell from how little the silver has tarnished. The horn is in good condition, with nearly all of the original silver plate intact. The engraving is also nice, as is the deco bell support.
The sound is medium bright and spread with a complex core- great for jazz, blues, funk, or rock. The Noyek resonators make it wail with an aggressive mouthpiece, so it can really scream if you push it. The squared off key touches on right and left pinky keys look cool, but the ergonomics take some getting used to. It ships in a Selmer Saxpak case.
