Offered here for your consideration is a Buescher Aristocrat alto from 1951. This is a 140 and as I understand identical to the "Big B" with the exception that it has no G# trill key. This horn has a dent repair just to the right of the tone hole at the lower end of the back side of the horn low C? It proves difficult to photograph, but I believe you can see it.

The last image shows it. I had the neck repaired as well, as it had some dents. But I think the tech did a great job of restoring it. It has all new pads, the correct original style snap-in pads (from Ferees), and all the snaps are present. The pads are not all correctly seated and will need some work to get the horn in playing condition.

I believe adjusting/seating the pads should be all this horn needs. Comes in a Protec International case. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask, and thanks for looking!
