Rare find, a Dave Guardala New York Tenor Saxophone in silver plate. This horn has been all over the world with me, and I have maintained it meticulously.

Last tuned up in 2025 by one of LA’s best repair techs. Pads are 8 years old, horn plays quiet all the way down to low Bb.

These horns were built by B&S out of Germany in the 90’s. This one is bright, powerful and the intonation is fantastic. I would not recommend this instrument for classical playing, the tone of the instrument won’t really fit there. It absolutely shines in Jazz / R&B / Commercial studio settings .

As a bonus it comes with a Manning Custom Case, very light and very strong.

Price is firm, this is an outstanding instrument and I’m not in a rush to sell. However I can offer a discount, if buyer purchases this tenor and the matched guardala alto which I also have listed on reverb.

Please feel free to set up a time to come play test it.


Thanks for looking !
