Thick, warm, chocolatey, luscious bold tone. The kind of sound you can only get with a Martin. This one is extremely dark from it’s bold low end to the round top end. Great projection and loud when pushed, but never too bright or edgy, just a huge sound! Think Conn but warmer…
This has been well played and as you can see from the photos has hardly any lacquer remaining, but what a superb patina on the raw brass!
These Martins are the crowning achievement of the company and these later “magna” models are highly sought after. A real players horn with improved ergonomics on earlier models and a huge amount of saxophone for the money!
