38xxx SBA (Super ‘Balanced’ Action) Tenor, Coltrane Year & Model 1949

This horn was a big project.  Now fully restored with (mostly) original resonators and excellent harder pads, bow to body soldered, all toneholes dressed, keys fitted etc etc.. huge job.  Such a wonderful horn, organic and lyrical yet edgy and dry sounding, also quite compact center.

For those who are still wondering, yes original US lacquer/engraving and matching original neck.
