Questions and Answers

Where do i find serial number on my Conn saxophone?
Can only find 6079 stamped on it. It's marked Conn USA on the bell with what i believe they call the "shooting stars" design. everything i find tells of serial #'s in the 6000's are from 1903, but i don't believe mines that old. and no, no other numbers have been filed off next to the 6079. These numbers are below what i think is the right thumb "hook". it is obvious i'm not a sax player. picked this up at a yard sale some time ago.
Answer:
Often these are hard to find, as you are finding out. Check on the ribs, underneath the keys. That made them particularly hard to file off, as you alluded to. There are also sites like that of Lars Kirmser that have serial runs - so does Dan Cipriano, and a few others. You can always contact Selmer (who took over Conn) - and then it went to UMI. http://www.xs4all.nl/~cderksen/ConnSaxophone.html You probably hit this page already - same results, 1903. Could be . . . .

It varies from pawn shop to pawn shop and would be based on the condition of the instrument. Figure about 10% - 15% of the actual value.
where would i find the serial number on my conn alto saxophone?
im pretty sure all i can find is the model number which is under the thumb rest where would the serial be? and thats not the serial i looked hah yea its definately a fake thanks though and would i get in trouble for selling it?
Answer:
It will depend on how new or old the instrument is. If it is an old Conn, the information is all under the thumb rest. I don't know where it is on the newer conns. I linked to a picture below to show what the serial number information is on an old Conn. In the example, the serial number is the line starting with M. You can never get in trouble for selling a fake unless you are claiming it is something it is not. Also realize that I only provided the picture for older Conns (pretty much pre 1960s). What the newer Conns have could be something else. If it is a fake, don't expect to get much more than maybe $200, if that.
