Rare Vintage Vendome Tenor Sax (Made in Finland) – Two-Tone

Selling a very unique and rare vintage Vendome Tenor Saxophone. This is a beautiful instrument that would make a great addition for a collector or a fantastic restoration project for a player looking for a vintage European horn. ​Key Features & Details (Based strictly on the instrument): ​Type: Tenor Saxophone. ​Brand: "VENDOME" is beautifully engraved on the front of the bell. ​Origin: Clearly stamped "MADE IN FINLAND" on the neck receiver. ​Serial/Assembly Number: "342". This low number is stamped on the main body tube and matching on the key guards. ​Finish: Gorgeous "Two-Tone" aesthetic. It features a gold-colored (brass/lacquer) body with contrasting silver-colored (nickel-plated) keys and mechanism. ​Mechanics & Hardware: Features vintage wire-style key guards with red felt bumpers. The leather pads are standard vintage style (no metal resonators). The original matching neck is included. ​Condition: Cosmetically, it is in excellent vintage condition with a great shine and honest wear consistent with its age. Please note: I source items from storage auctions and I am not a woodwind expert or player. This saxophone has not been play-tested and is being sold "as-is". It will likely require new pads, adjustments, or a standard tune-up by a technician to be in optimal playing condition. ​What is Included: ​Vendome Tenor Saxophone & Neck. ​Original vintage hard case with a plush purple velvet interior (latches work). ​Rico Royal mouthpiece (in original box) with ligature and cap. ​Neck strap and a Rico reed.
