Hi, everyone im'e new to the forum and just found this King Silversonic alto on ebay (item no 160269420440) sorry i dont have a link to it but i dont know how, i said i was new! anyway it looks quite a nice one early model with double socket neck, gold inlaid engraving on the outside of the bell etc, but i wonder if there are isues with it as one bidder has already retracted his bid, but hay someone may be infor a nice sax! what do you think?:?:?

hm, shipping costs are on the stiff side, pads look old-ish though most likely ok. Not sure about the lacquer, could be a relacq but hard to determine since the pictures are so different. Have you asked the seller if the horn is in original condition?

I was put of by the sax, mainly becawse it looked to good to be true, like you said it could have been a relac and also the seller was a bit to cockey with his smart replies to peoples questions regarding condition etc, anyways that ones gone now (sold for £2136 + shipping) could have been a good buy considering the age, gold inlaid engraving etc but for me something wasent quite right.
I would have thought this was a bit to cheap for a sax of this quality assuming it was genuine and not a relac, what do you guys think?:?
