Original Lacquer Buescher 400 Top Hat and Cane Tenor Saxophone
This might be the best example of the classic Top Hat and Cane I have ever seen. The original lacquer is above 95%, probably closer to 99% as there are no wear spots from body rubbing off the lacquer, just some light scratching at the neck strap hook and minor crackling of the lacquer in small spots like the bell lip. Please see pictures for best description of condition!Case is in good condition but one of the latches is missing.
The horn has new pads and was professionally set up. The original snap in padswerekept, so it is all original and ready to play!
Serial Number: 325,480
The Top Hat and Cane is one of the all time great professional saxophones, and this is just an amazingly well preserved example! Plus its from the best years they were made, this one is from 1949!
