Holton Revalation tenor Sax rare

vintage Holton Revelation Tenor Saxophone
one of the best kept secrets in the saxophone world
The Revelation ,unlike any other holton is in a class of its own,these are very rare also

this was a pro horn when it was made ,it is not comparable to student line holtons
the shape of the bell is unique ,the tone holes and keys are sized differently than other holtons
It has been  compared to a Selmer mk6 in tone and power ,this is also my own experience of over 35 years playing.
. i met a great jazz player who told me this ,he said they play as good as a mk6 ,i was curious  when i bought one i agreed.i was going to keep incase i could not afford a selmer mk6 but as the years moved on and now have a decent mk6  i should let someone else use it.

please note mk6 all play different ,the point is it has a pro sound with power .also the Revelation is not comparable with other holtons

it is in good condition for its age ,look at the pics .minimal dent on the neck but has no effect ,could be rubbed out if needed. pads are in good working order and should last a while before a repad is needed. The horn has been just serviced so should not be leaks when it arrives but after shipping any horn it is possible ,90% of horns shipped survive the jouney in my experience.whats nice about this horn is it has the ability  to blow and feel big or huge .
the case is  still in good working condition.Thanks for looking

all used items are sold as is.
