Description
This is a very fun to play Otto Link alto piece. It’s an original 7 measuring .088″. The denim machine marks on the table go right down the rails as well, so this piece has not been messed with or even played much. It has a tiny nick in the right side rail and a scratch on the table and a few scratches on the body. Just normal stuff that does not affect playability. As far as what “model” this is, I’ll be as clear as possible. I would call this either a Late Florida Link (made and stamped in FL, faced in Elkhart), or an early Early Babbitt! The later Early Babbitt pieces have a larger font facing stamp and a signature “clamshell” baffle, but this one is more like a slant Florida with a baffle like a slant and a smaller font facing stamp. Hopefully that’s all clear and accurate. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think that’s right. In any case, it’s a great playing vintage link in a hard to find 7 tip original facing. Should be a superb alto piece for someone for lead alto and jazz.
