This is a great example of an original Buescher THC Alto. There is a bit of lacquer wear, but no physical damage.
The pads on this horn are original, so it is not very playable. The original pad snaps are still in tack. It is in the lineup for a complete Mechanical Overhaul. It can still be purchased as is, or with a complete overhaul.
Buescher THC altos are some of the most underrated horns out there. Once this is rebuilt, it will have a huge, fat sound that will hold its own with the best out there.
