martin questions
hi folks.. i have been given an old martin low pitch tenor by a relitive who was a professional musician. it amazes me, i have not touched a sax for over 60 years but was able to pick it up and play almost as well as i did then. [ i have been playing the bass for the last 40 years] it all came back. i wonder if anyone can give me any info on this instrument. it is serial number 124071, gold with silver keys,pearl finger buttons. and says low pitch on it. the engaving on the horn says "martin" elkhart ind. and it has some other engrving that these old eyes can't quite make out. it looks a little like "houndog' but i can;t be sure. there is a lot of fancy engraving on it. not interested in selling it as i have a grandson who is a music major at western mich. university and he is learning all instruments.he is a trumpet virtuso,also plays clarinet,piano,guitar,flute and trombone so i think he would appricate this instrument. any help would passed on to him.
thanks... lee dewstow
