 Conn Sax?

I have a Conn Sax that dates back to the year 1575! Does anybody know how much it is worth? It is made of gold and has diamond stamped fingerpads.

The saxophone wasn't invented until 1841. And on that same note, are you sure it's made of gold? Sounds heavy to me. . .

AH yes that is what we have been programmed to believe.....that the saxophone was invented in the 1800,s.But in reality isnt it possible that it could have been invented well before then? Think about it were you around when the saxophone was invented...no.Point made.I rest my case.

So you think you're better than all the historians and the inventor, well documented on photographs, and all? I'm from Belgium, yes, that little country where the sax was invented... Don't you believe anything you haven't seen with your own eyes or has happened way before you?

I just think you want to cause some commotion. If you had such an instrument, I would already long be documented and put in a museum.

I rest my case

The history of both Adolph Saxe's invention of the saxophone and the history of the Conn instrument company are pretty well documented.
