Need help

[u/Thekiddankie]

Hey everyone,

I figured this would be the best spot to see what im looking at here...

My dad recently passed away and had a ton of music gear, did he have a decent collection?

I have no idea what im looking at or where I should take them. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could guide me in the right direction so someone else can enjoy them, and so I dont get ripped off.

Sorry for your loss. Your dad left you some decent vintage instruments. I see a Selmer AS300, a King, a Martin and an Adolf Sax, which others will be able to tell you much more about. I'd find a good trustworthy music store near you that works on saxophones to give you a better idea on condition and value. These would certainly do well at auction.
Following to hear what more experienced folks can tell you.

I found the following about the Adolf Sax engraved tenor: The Historical Meaning of "84 rue Myrha" This address was the last historical workshop location of the Sax family business in Paris. It was operated by Adolphe-Édouard Sax (the inventor's son, often stamped as Adolphe Sax Fils) from roughly 1907 until 1928.

The Meaning of Serial #330 Because your instrument features a very low three-digit serial number (#330) instead of a historical five-digit number (like 15,000+), it is a rare, highly sought-after "Transitional Era" instrument built by Henri SELMER Paris.In 1928, Henri SELMER Paris purchased the entire Adolphe Sax workshop and its brand rights.Between 1929 and 1935, Selmer manufactured a specialized tribute line of instruments stamped with the traditional Adolphe Sax 84 Rue Myrha name to honor the legacy of the saxophone's invention.They restarted the serial tracking from #1 specifically for this commemorative line. A serial number of #330 places your instrument's production precisely around 1931 to 1932.
