Conn 150th Anniversary Limited Edition Alto Sax – CONNfirmation

Conn 150th Anniversary Model Limited Edition Alto Sax
Only 40 Will Be Made Available!

Conn is arguably the most historic American musical instrument brand. With a legacy dating back to 1875 with the first cornet under the Conn brand, the Conn name has been nothing short of historic. In celebration of that history, Conn has released an extremely limited edition of 40 total Conn 150th Anniversary Alto Saxophones. These instruments offer a truly unique design that is reminiscent of vintage Conn saxes in sound but with a modern scale for excellent intonation and modern ergonomics.

How Does it Play?
Simple answer: Huge!

Conn has created an instrument with superb acoustics. The CONNfirmation’s sound is resonant and even throughout the entire scale of the instrument. Free blowing, expressive and remarkably balanced in tone, response and intonation.

So why make it a Limited Edition only?
The CONNfirmation was designed and built as more of a prototyping concept for the upcoming reintroduction of the Conn brand to saxes in the market. Prototyping a new design requires immense time, effort and expense to do. With this sax, Conn was developing the bore concept and feature sets to be utilized in the eventual release of the new Conn models. While we do have some inside information on these new models, we cannot share them yet! However, the acoustic elements designed for these horns were just too impressive to NOT let get out on the market. So that is what Conn has decided to do in this release of the Limited Edition CONNfirmation model alto sax.

Each horn as a limited edition number on them – but get ready for a little wonkiness… there are only 40 that are being released on the market, but the series numbering (marked on the bell to bow band) will be in an xxx/150 format! So even though there are only 40, the series indicates that there are 150 – but there never were! Only 40. In our original batch, we were limited to 3 total, numbers 40, 43 and 61, which all sold quickly. We have 2 more coming soon though (updated October 2026) so if you want one, you know where to get it!
