King Cleveland tenor saxophone
The flagship King Super 20 was a well respected sax used by many of great saxophonist, not just in jazz, but also rock n roll hits. From 'Tequila' to Pink Floyd's 'Money' the King sound has appeared on many a hit.
The Cleveland was the budget version of the Super 20 and has less sophisticated keywork, but essentially the same body tube so you get a similar sound.
This old Cleveland has been in the wars a little and has signs of repair and has a bit of wear of scuff marks. It was fitted with new pads so the previous owner musted have loved it enough to get it back in playing order.
I've had to give it a service and reseat a pad hear and there to get it working properly. It now has that King roar, though for a tenor, it feels fairly light in the hands.
If you want a tenor for the price of an alto or a maybe a decent back-up instrument here's a tenor worth considering.
The case is a good solid one with latches. PRICE: £375

Elkhart Series II alto saxophone
This is a good quality student alto, made in Taiwan . (Elkharts are now made in China, and Taiwanese sax manufacture concentrates on producing professional quality instruments. )
This one is a bit scruffier than the saxophones I normally buy in , but it was going cheap and I know they are well-built saxophones, so after a service and a couple of pads replaced, it is playing well and good to go.
So on offer is a great beginner to intermediate level instrument at a bargain price.
Comes with mouthpiece and a sling and a good sturdy case.
. PRICE: £220
