Key features include:
• Two hand-customized necks (the original plus the FAT Neck® with underslung octave tube for a freer-blowing feel and emphasized mids/lows)
• 16 semi-precious stones adorning the key touches, necks, and bell key guard
• Intricate hand engraving
• Detachable bow and bell
• Upgraded case (original factory case included)
Serial number 146396 places this in the mid-to-late production range for these sought-after Stone Series models.
The saxophone is in good overall condition and plays well with no major mechanical issues—pads, corks, and felts are serviceable (recent regulation/setup recommended for optimal performance, as with any used pro horn). It has typical surface scratches and wear in spots from normal use (visible on the body and keys in photos), but no dents, dings, or soldered repairs. The Raven finish still looks striking with its dark, matte iced black-nickel vibe.
This is a solid, professional-grade instrument ready for gigs, recording, or advancing players. Priced to sell—serious inquiries only. Includes both necks and the original case.
