The Vintage Martin "The Martin" Committee Baritone Saxophone from 1948 is a rare and sought-after instrument for jazz enthusiasts and collectors alike. They are the best of the vintage baritones. All of the Martin horns have a sweet sound, and a very lush lower end. The horns from 1933 (Handcraft Committee) through the early 60’s (the Magna) can hold their own with anything ever made . This set includes a mouthpiece, strap, and high quality protec carry case.

Cornet is in fine shape overall with heavy tarnishing across the board. Valves and slides need oil and grease, some slides do not move and will need extra help getting unstuck. Year is estimated 1954-1956 based on serial number. Case has heavy wear all around. See photos for more details, and feel free to ask questions.

The tone holes are rings soldered onto the body tube. I did not detect any leaks due to deterioration of the solder. The interior of the body tube was very tidy so I suspect it was well maintained and interior dry so less likely galvanic corrosion would occur.

Very cool piece bought from original owner has not been out of the case in 40 years so with that said the valves and slides are stuck and will need servicing. I am not a repair tech so will leave that up to the new owner. Does have some finish wear and a few dings as you can see from the photos. I do not see any signs of repair work. Looks like a solid horn and comes with original case also in nice condition. Thanks

Submitted for your approval: a vintage 1949 Martin Committee III Alto Saxaphone. Serial Number 169269 from late 1949. In probably the best condition you're going to find. Look at my photos closely. From what I can find out this was probably purchased new from a music shop in Lubbock Texas. The owner attended Texas Tech University and was a member of the Texas Tech Band. I took this to the professionals at Tatum Music in Longview Texas to verify it's condition. Thers is almost no instrument odor that is so common in band instruments. One of the nicest Martin's you'll find. I'll try and answer any questions you have. The case in which this resides is also as nice as you'll find in a vintage instrument. Thanks, Selmer, conn band, bundy band, slingerland drum, king band instruments,
