The Pan American Saxophone model number index
This is a Pan American saxophone model list. I have
included an extra column to indicate the year(s) when the instrument was (at
least) in use. If both the "Year Introduced" and "Year Discontinued" columns
are filled, the "Years Used" column is left blank (no need stating the
obvious). Italics indicates "educated guess". Instruments are Low Pitch unless
otherwise noted by the indication (HP) after the model
name indicating "High Pitch".
The following list is by no means complete or even correct. If you find an
error, or have an instrument produced before roughly 1955 (see serial number
index) with a model number that doesn't appear on this list or is produced
outside the years indicated on this list, please let me know. See main page
for e-mail. This list wouldn't have been possible without the "Conn Home" section of the
Saxpics site.
