A truly fantastic horn with that characteristic Selmer sound. After playing it for a while, I've decided that I prefer the vintage American horns, so I'd like for this to go to a new owner that will give it more playing time.A Balanced Action Alto in superb condition, overhauled in recent years by one of LA's best sax technicians. Pads are excellent and sealing perfectly. I have a correspondence between the original owner and the Selmer factory, referring to the restoration that was done around 1980, to verify authenticity. Pictures show all important details. Notice that one of the low C key guard feet appears to be coming undone, but it is still strongly attached to the body tube. Comes in the Berkeley of London case pictured in the main photo.
All reasonable offers welcome.
