Vintage Lyon and Healy Ambassador Professional Silver Plate Alto Sax, Serial #11215

This is a vintage Lyon and Healy “Ambassador Professional” alto saxophone in silver plate, serial number 11215. The Ambassador is an American vintage saxophone from the 1920's. Its key work and beveled tone hole construction is very similar to the Martin Handcraft models of the same period. 

 

This one in particular shows history of past solder and body repair. Some dents and dings still remain at this time. This sax will need to be completely overhauled before it is ready for any playing. At this time Saxquest has a large number of great vintage items for sale in as is condition. Because of its older vintage this is potentially a good item to serve as an at home project piece or as a collector. 

 

Ships out in as is condition with case.
