    When I began playing saxophone in the 4th grade in 1968, it was on my dad's 1937 Handcraft Committee. He had bought it used from a college friend sometime in the late 1940s for $50. I still have the horn and use it as my back-up alto. I recognized that sound as soon as you started playing! 🙂

      @@timyllym You're welcome! I was just looking at my horn last night. Do you have any idea as to the make/model of the single-engine airplane engraved on the bell?

      No, I don't have any idea.

      Probably any of a number of planes that were around at that time. Looks a bit like The Spirit of St. Louis. @@timyllym

    sorry I couldn't quite understand. how do the early committees sound compared to the comm3?

      These early committees have a soft sound while the later models are more loud.

    I have one of these, but there seem to be many for sale at the suggested value that just sit unsold. It's a sweet sounding horn though.

      I agree. These Martins are highly underrated instruments. Excellent value for money.
