This is a Martin Committee II Tenor Saxophone with a serial number of 131xxx. These horns are known for having a "Lion and Crown" engraving on the bell. These are tenors that definitely have a powerful and loud sound that can handle any amount of air you can put into it. They have a fantastic core sound that can really have a nice ring to it.
This horn was recently rebuilt by Emilio Lyons in Boston. It has his signature job with red pads. It will go through a complete setup before leaving the shop.
The serial number on this horn dates it back to 1939. Given that this horn is over 80 years old, it’s impressive that there is still a good amount of its original lacquer left.
