Selmer Mark VI Soprano 187xxx Original Lacquer Plays Great!

This is a beautiful, original lacquer example of a Selmer Mark VI soprano saxophone. It has all ORIGINAL lacquer and no past damage at all. No dents, dings, resolders, or other repairs. It includes the original case also. It is pretty hard to find a clean and beautiful Mark VI like this. This horn also has extensive hand engraving and looks just great. It keyed up to high F#. The engraving is beautiful too. Many VI sopranos were unengraved, and the engraved ones are worth more.

This horn just got a thorough setup done by Matt Stohrer, and it comes to you in good playing condition with a mix of pads (many new ones). It feels good under the fingers and plays down to low Bb easily. The response is also really nice on this horn.

The tone is classic VI soprano – it has that delicate, reedy core tone that you will instantly recognize from innumerable saxophone tracks that you hear everywhere. Intonation is good for a VI – these horns have flexible pitch, especially up high, so you need to have a decent ear and practice a bit.
