RARE Early HN White Model KING Alto Sax in Original Gold Plate - Serial # 76802
Printer Friendly Send to Friend
Product ID: 76802KingAlto
This is a very rare, early vintage H.N. White King alto sax, serial number 76802. This horn has very detailed engraving, not too dissimilar from the King Artist models made around this time frame. It is in original gold plate and is in very nice shape.
This is definitely for the collectors out there. The original gold plating shows minor wear mostly in the bottom bow and bell area, where you can see the silver plating underneath coming through. The engraving wrapping around the bell is rich and detailed. There are no major dents anywhere, though maybe or two previously removed from the bow area in the past. The neck is original with matching serial number.
This sax would need a pad job to be in playing condition, but as a collector's piece we are offering it as-is at a super low price. If you have a budding collection of rare and unique saxophones, this early example of a King is a real find! Does ship in a hard case.
