Musical sound (4)

I think it could be either:

tone

note

'musical sound' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tone that I've seen before include "Shade" , "Bodily firmness" , "Musical note; general character" , "A pitch of note" , "Theobald Wolf . . . ." .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the King Feature Syndicate, The Star Tribune, The Mirror and the Newsday.
