Need Info on Vintage TenorAlright I am fixing up this old Tenor saxophone, on the bell it says "Rene Duval" on it, serial is 9XXX. I picked it up for 160 bucks, doing a complete rebuild on it, well I am going to perserve the petina it gotten. So now from my research it's a stencil company made by Orsi which go insides with the "Made in Italy" stamp on the bow of the bell. And the serial I believe would put it roughly in the late 40's early 50's. I am in love with the horn regardless, I been searching for a vintage tenor for months and found this hiding in someone's closet for 9 years. Oh and it was the laquered finish which odly eough is holding up in many parts of it but it had started aging beautifully. But I can't find any history on this tenor, so maybe someone on here would know. I hope they do. |
