hi all, i looked at this model in ebay and i am having a hard time telling if it worth the investment, the seller told my it's a "CONN Tenor Sax Model# N 49507" and the sell in ebay is: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250230439585&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123

thanks.

Welcome to SOTW!

I'm pretty sure that Conn had completely moved their operations to Mexico by the time this was made so its not going to be worth silly amounts of money. However if its setup nicely there's no reason why it shouldn't be a great horn, just don't expect it to be the same as a vintage one.

However just the mouthpieces are probably worth more than what its going for right now.

Yea I've got one of those Brilhart's in the marketplace now for more than the current price, I haven't seen a Conn precision in white in a while.
