      1923 Conn New Wonder Series 1, to be exact. This is the most popular and most valuable of the C Melody saxophones, followed by the Buescher True Tone.

        Yes. A New Wonder Series 1. I have one that is a year older. With a modern c-mel mouthpiece, these can be awesome horns with a wonderful sound. Old Conns are relatively easy to date. Go to the CGConn website and click 'serial number search'. It's easy from there. Cheers.
