Buescher 400 Alto Sax Excellent Playing New Pads Overhauled Nortons + Snap Pads

Description

Very Nice example of a desirable Buescher 400. This an alto. Ive been using it occasionally these couple of years (prob less) infrequently. Has all but three of the snap pads (palms). All of the Norton spings are in place. They all unscrew per the factory set up. Instrument was taken apart, cleaned in and out, pads and all corks replaced. Keys and rods swedged (as needed). Assembled and re-lubricated with synthetic products. Finally; regulated for consistency of feel under fingers. Pads pop with a satisfying 'note' onto tone holes. The OEM fitted case accommodates it's big bell and wide bow. Quite functional though not pretty, with a new leather handle. Your questions are welcome. I believe this serial numbered model represents toward the end of the pre-Selmer buy out production. Shipping will be insured for value at 18lbs. To be determined based on your location. You may opt out of full value insurance if you wish at your own risk. I do the right job of packing and have suffered no losses ever.
