Conn New Wonder I C Melody saxophone - Overhaul
A 'photo-essay', from start to finish.
This family owned C Melody arrived with hopes for a future, "would it be possible to bring it back to playable, and nice to look at??".
There was rust to conquer, it had a bath in 2 different chemical tanks, a whole lot of scrubbing, metal parts hand polished, did I mention cleaning up a bunch of rust?..., key system completely re-built, eventually fitted out with a set of white Roo pads with the original Buescher 'pad-snap' resonators and all modern material key 'corks & felts'. It was pretty fun to play this one, it lives on!
The 'nice' photos are at the bottom. Scroll on!
