1926-27 vintage Buescher TrueTone alto, gold. I had it overhauled and it plays wonderfully.

This isn't craigslist caterpie;
Why have it overhauled if you're gonna sell it anyway?
Also, How much was the work on it anyway.
Also, Also, no I do not want it.
Sorry. I play trombone.
WHY DO YOU NEED TO SELL IT? ARE THERE ANY IMPERFECTIONS?

Because I have two excess altos right now, this one and a shitty old one. I overhauled this one because people pay more for saxes in awesome condition than saxes in poor condition that would still be a good deal, price of repairs included.
With a decent mouthpiece, this would be an amazing sax... I've been playing it with a Selmer C*, which is a classical mouthpiece not well suited for old jazzy saxes.
I want to sell both of my extra altos, and get a vintage tenor.

How about I give you the amount I originally stated? I believe that was about $320 or so. weewee;

Sorry, that was kind of a poor estimate on my part... I wouldn't take less than $400 + shipping. I should really be asking $500...

No. psyduck;
Shipping would only be $20-30, probably.
$10 says even if Lawlz bought it, he wouldn't put forth the effort to learn it well at all and probably end up wishing he had never bought it in the first place.

It's not a Playstation.
I have been wanting to learn sax for a couple months now befuddlement
Sorry. I play trombone.
Without a mouthpiece, no.
My brother already has three saxophones. Besides, tenors are far superior to altos.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO USE THAT NASTY SALIVA-INFESTED INSTRUMENT OF YOURS, YOU DIRTY BASTARD
HAHA NICE TRY

Yeah, I agree. My main setup is a tenor, and hopefully I'll be getting a nice vintage tenor or C-melody with the money from this one.

Ohhhhhh man, that made me remember that my brother also has a C-melody (though it does need some restoring before he can play it). Make that four saxaphones.

You're Lawlz. You don't have that kind of dedication.
