VINTAGE Conn Director Alto Saxophone Outfit
This Conn Director alto saxophone is a vintage American student horn with a very different feel from modern saxophones. Its older key layout and ergonomics can be challenging for younger players, so we see this one as a much better fit for an adult returning player, especially someone who remembers playing a Director in the 1970s and wants that familiar experience again.
Key Features
-
Vintage Conn construction gives it the feel and response of an earlier generation of American student saxophones.
-
Newer pads help give the horn a useful head start mechanically compared with many vintage student instruments.
-
Sanitized and adjusted by our shop so it is prepared for dependable playing despite its cosmetic age.
-
Older-style ergonomics differ noticeably from modern student saxophones and are better suited to a player already comfortable with this type of keywork.
Condition
C- condition with extensive play wear throughout the horn. It has newer pads and has been sanitized and adjusted for playing, while the included case is clearly vintage, heavily dated in appearance, and shows its age. Vintage items are not returnable.
Best suited to an adult returning player who has experience with older Conn saxophones and values familiarity over modern ergonomics.
Cool gear at a great price, backed by our meticulous care.
