Simply one of the true Classics, which has easily withstood the test of time. In short, if what you want is that big, dark, lush Tenor sound of the past, this is your horn (and at the moment, in this economy, they have been going for "buyers" prices). Most common alteration made to a 10M is the relocation of the neckstrap eyelet.about a $25 alteration which does away with the dynamic affectionately referred to as the "Conn Cobra" (!) Look it up, it's kinda funny. People make a big issue over the ergonomics of the instrument, but truth be told.all it takes is a couple of weeks to get any sax under your fingers and then you are gonna be out of the gate. Intonation was never really an issue with Conns after the '30's although the 10M does best with a medium-large chamber mouthpiece. It is just a signature sound: huge, dark spread in the low overtones accompanied by some nice bite and punch in the upper registers. Folks will say that the tone changed over the generation it was made, but having done side-to-side tests on various era ones.if this is true, it is by less than 6 degrees of separation, really. There is no contemporary horn which exists which has ever matched the big 'ol american Tenor tone of a 10M. People buy vintage horns because they just sound better. Now, finding one on eBay may well require you to invest in some repairs to get a sax working up to snuff, but on a 10M this is always money well-spent.

It is a part of the Jazz history and I think is the best tenor saxophone you can have o play. Maybr just a nice Sel mer MKVI can compete with the Naked Lady. The sound is much better than the saxophone from his era, and much much better compared by the saxophones built from 1970 and after. The sound is heating the people are arond, because it is very beautiful.
The sound is coming out is very refined, well balanced on all the range, very tuned, velvety and lovable. The mechanics was fine and it is a real step ahead from the New Wonder, so you can go much faster and easily, quite as a Selmer saxophone. When I read and previewed the written and video reviews on the Jean Paul I decided that for the price it was worth taking a chance as a backup or to share with my students in ensemble rehearsals. I fixed the saxophone making a complete overhaul and than I tried it again. I have been a saxophone performer and teacher for over 50 and I still play my Mark 6 tenor purchased in 1966. Anyway, the sound was smooth and velvety. The saxophone was playable let us say it was the 50%, maybe less. Sorry for my english, I will try to explain what I think about this saxophone.
