Saxes for Sale, c-melody, alto, tenor, clarinet plus mouthpieces, reeds and a load of other things

The C-Melody saxophones listed below should be considered as'projects' - but in the course of time I'll obviously try to get them all up to at least 'just playable' standard - so that some idea of the sound potential can be heard. All are 'LP' / A=440, which means they will play in tune with modern instruments. I'm open to sensible offers, and will ship to most parts of the world - I'm based in England / UK. For any general questions about C-Melody Saxophones, go to my Question and Answer page, or the Model info page.

Please email me if you'd like to be contacted when I've any playable C-Melody saxophones available. Click on any underlined links, or the picture(s) below for more details - a period case is usually included. Mouthpieces and reeds are also listed in the appropriate sections. All prices are in £ - UK Pounds ( Pounds Sterling / GBP ) . Various payment options available including Paypal and Bank-to-Bank transfer. Shipping to Europe (and further) at sensible prices.
