Depends on the brand.
Conns: all the way back to the Worchester models to about 1970, when Conn discontinued their proffessional line.
So I guess you could say invention-of-sax to about the 60's-70's.
The popularity of lacquered brass as the #1 finish is also an indicator of 'modern' saxes. Keywork like the low a on baris is a good indicator as well, though many vintage selmer mk vi's have low a's, along with the Conn 11m.
So many factors.
