Buffet Super Dynaction Alto 17xxx Great Deal!

If you read around on this site, you will see that I am a big fan of Buffet SDA altos. They are great. This one has a bit more lacquer wear than the others, and the pads are a mix of older and newer. But at this price, you can do whatever you like with it. It's an original lacquer SDA with "sparkle lacquer" that plays as-is, for $1300 - that's a deal! It has a nice, rich sound and good intonation. If you are looking for the most tone for your money, and you like vintage French saxophone tone (aka Selmer, SML, Buffet and Co.) then it would be hard to beat this.
