Description

If you’re looking for that vintage sound, this is the sax for you!  The King Super 20 is widely regarded as the pinnacle of American-made saxophones. Introduced in the 1940s, it earned praise for its powerful, warm tone and outstanding projection. Legendary players in the 1940s and ’50s chose Super 20s for big band and studio work, and they remain highly coveted by professionals and collectors alike. This horn is in GREAT shape! The lacquer is in superior condition and there are no dents or dings. Even the original case is in good shape.  All original pearls in all the normal places plus on the palm and pinkie keys.  You won’t find many 1955 instruments in this condition, so players and collectors should be jumping for this one. This saxophone has been meticulously serviced by our technician and is ready to roll! It has been completely repadded, cleaned, fitted with ne corks and felts.
