Model: 103

 

Type: F/Bb or Bb/F  full double

 

 

Bell throat: Medium

 

Alloy: unlacquered gold brass

 

Bell flare: fixed

Visual/cosmetic condition: good, but with a fair amount of brass

 

tarnish, and some water spots on the bell.

 

Valve compression: excellent.

 

Two water keys: 1) 'Joykey' on the leadpipe;

 

2) 'Amado/Getzen' on the Bb 3rd slide.

 

Case: original Alex case in much-used condition, 'adequate

and functional' but not really protective enough. 

A brand new lightweight back-pack case is available for £75.

 

Further details: a very fine 1970s Alex 103, an excellent

 

player all-round, despite various aspects of its appearance.
