Super 20’s are very consistent horn to horn, once you fix every little thing. And there are few people alive who will do this with as much skill, experience, and care as Matt will. Matt overhauled my personal Super 20 alto, which is just about the best alto ever. And because the consignor has a spot reserved with Matt Stohrer, you can choose to get it with his overhaul and also skip the line at the same time! You just cover the overhaul cost when the overhaul is done if you want to go that route. Comes with current pads, and the beautiful original red King case.

This is among the nicest examples of the Full Pearls King Super 20 alto that I have seen. There’s some scratching on the back of the bow also. The only past repair is a bit of light dent work on the back (pants side) of the bow, which was done very well. The neck has never been damaged and even still has some of the original gold lacquer on it, which only the most pristine King necks still do.

Neck is in excellent condition, with matching serial number. It has its original pads still intact! Original lacquer.

This King Super 20 alto is in very good original condition now. Meaning, your equipment will not be holding you back from attaining one of the most gorgeous and instantly beautiful alto saxophone tones that has ever existed. If you pair this horn with a Ted Klum New York model alto piece, and use a slightly soft reed for that extra bite, you’ll get fairly close to Cannonball tonally. Tone wise, just go listen to Cannonball Adderley on Somethin’ Else ( Dancin’ in the Dark gives you a classic representation of Super 20 alto tone.) Of course, you’ll have to practice a ton to sound as confident and eloquent as Cannonball, but still. (For tone, I also love early Conn 6M’s!) But the Super 20 wins because it also has solid silver neck, more modern ergonomics, and the full pearls. The King Super 20 Alto Saxophone with ‘full pearls’ (meaning pearls on side keys, palm keys, octave key, and G# in addition to the usual pearl key touches), is in my opinion the best all around vintage alto saxophone for jazz and lots of other styles. It gives you both one of the best altos ever made, and the chance to skip to the front of the line for a Matt Stohrer overhaul.
