Wanted
Vito Kenosha Alto Sax
Serial Number 5321A
SOLD - Aug. '08
This sax is rather special in that it has custom-made
African Jade
inlays on the keyguards, and the left-hand thumbrest,
while in the traditional Vito oval shape, is also executed in
African Jade
The majority of the pads on this horn have flat metal resonators and, interestingly enough, the bulk of the pads are
Conn Resopads with the metal rim around the circumference of the pad, under the leather.
If you are familiar with Kenosha Vitos, you'll notice the many signs of its French (Beaugnier) heritage: the
bell brace;
the sculpting
of the keywork and
keyguards; the
G# articulation 'on/off' switch
Good intonation, good tone, robust bottom end...this'll be a good-looking, great player for some lucky individual.
Comes in a very nice, blue Pro-Tec gig bag.
