Re: Ridenour Libertas for jazz

Stan...Pan American was an interesting marque. Some of their stuff was designed from scratch to be lower-priced instruments, BUT other models were rebadged Conn models that had been replaced by updated versions--they just kept the older Conn model in production as a Pan American. There are some gems to be found for those willing to do a little homework.

I suspect the 58N was an old Conn. It did not have the cheap pot metal keys found on other Pan Ams, and played very well indeed.

Since you have an interest in hard rubber instruments, the ebonite Pan Ams could offer you an interesting alternative to your Ridenour.
