The woodwind Tenor Sax-Woodwind Brasswind Brand

The woodwind Tenor Sax-Woodwind Brasswind Brand. This sax is a little on the rougher side and does not play very well as it is. Although with a bit of work it could play well.

It does look to be about the same as a buescher BU-5, could be the same factory with a different name stamped on it. At some point someone very poorly tried to replace the neck with a cheap neck that did not fit properly. I cleaned up their solder work the best I could. I got the horn playing a bit better than when I got it, but I don't have the time to fix it myself. Has a lot of trouble getting to low notes due to some miss-aligned keys and leaky pads.

But most of them seal well and most keys work properly. The octave key mechanism tends to pop out sometimes, so that needs to be adjusted. This could be a well playing student sax if repaired properly, or it could be a fun project to work on. There are small dents, dings, and scratches all over.

Comes with a nice hard case. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. This item is in the category "Musical Instruments & Gear\Wind & Woodwind\Band & Orchestral\Saxophones". The seller is "bassoontree" and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped to United States.
