Wonderful original New York first production ‘Super’ Tonemaster double ring.  This facing stamp is 6 which is already very hard to find, although early production did not have larger tip sizes aligning with current charts, this measures at .083 so almost a 5*.  Interestingly, this piece has a HUGE baffle in that would be more commonly found in Florida production, but really it’s higher than those are as well.  This piece plays really rather bright for any link, but very bright for a NY.  The chamber actually appears to be a bit smaller than most NY’s as well and it does play more compact.  That long shank is something I have not seen on these early ones either.  Each of these was hand finished so .. it’s a rarity.
