Meet My 1931 Conn Transitional Tenor Sax

This is my Conn 'transitional model' tenor saxophone, built in 1931 in Elkhardt, Indiana (USA).  I bought this saxophone to replace a Selmer Mark VI which was stolen from me on a train trip in central Italy in 2018.  It was paid for with money raised during a crowdfunding campaign two years ago.


In this video I'll talk a little about the history of the instrument, show some modifications I requested from my repairman (the amazing Domenico Bartolomeo), and play a little to show what I love more and less about the instrument.
