Student Saxophone
I have an Armstrong alto saxophone, and i was wondering it was a student saxophone or higher Thanks?
Also when holding the saxophone up right there is a 7 digit number on the back of the instrument and i was wondering what is this number, as well how to i look it up and get the price of the instrument id like to sell it. Thanks
The Armstrong saxophone carries a brand name that is more often associated with flutes, clarinets, and piccolos. Many beginning band players have gotten their woodwind start playing one of these instruments. Currently, Armstrong is part of the Conn family of musical instrument brands and only makes flutes, clarinets, and piccolos, but you can find an Armstrong saxophone from time to time.
Armstrong made saxophones in the 1980′s. The saxophones were made in Elkhart, IN, like so many other band instruments have been down through the years. A used saxophone like one of these will probably need to be serviced by a professional musical instrument repairman before it will be suitable for playing. Since it may have been sitting in someone’s attic for years, it may need pads replaced and other adjustments, and a new mouthpiece may be needed.
Still, an older Armstrong could turn out to be a fairly adequate instrument for a beginner in the school band.
