Selmer Paris Super Balanced Action Tenor
Original Lacq, US Assembled, Serial 36,xxx
Folks, well the Super Balanced Action Selmer Paris Saxophone has now become one of the most desireable horns on the planet and prices have increased on these upwards quite dramatically over the last few years. Selmer was the first manufacturer to place both bell keys on the right side of the bell, improving ergonomics, action and intonation of the saxophone from it's predecessors. The Balanced Action and Super Balanced Action differ primarily from the body design and offset right hand key stacks similar to the MKVI. A very short production of 16,000 saxophones in total across all SBA flavours. This is a very nice SBA Tenor. . Tonally on the brighter side with that irreplaceable wooly warm sound that just can't be heard in todays modern horns. This sax has a recent pad job and will play straight out of the case. This one has around 85% original lacquer left and is a US assembled horn. It comes with it's original neck with matching serial number. Has the split bell guards which is characteristic of an early SBA. Comes with a Selmer case. Zipper doesn't work. Case is suitable for shipping. $12,990 AUD

Original Lacq, 1955, French Assembled
Just arrived, this is a 1955 MKVI alto, serial m59,662. This is prime early vintage MKVI. Has that great bebop sound that you'd expect. This sax is a trade in from a local A grade pro who bought a vintage Tenor from me. It has been checmically delacquered and the engraving as you can see from the pics is quite clear. The keys may be original silver plate. A little hard to tell. It is quite common for a French assembeld alto to have silver plated keys. The sax has it's original neck. All in excellent condition. I see no signs of any trauma at all. This sax has been played, but not abused, and for good reason. It really sings.
Have obtained some recordings of this horn. Have a listen here.
The sax comes with a fresh overhaul with Kangaroo pads and also a Protec Backpack case.
Great player. Nice and edgy tone.
Just been serviced and ready to play straight out of the case.
This is definitely a players horn to be play loud and proud infront of an audience.
Conn 6M VIII Alto 1937
Original Silver Plate, New Overhaul
Folks, just in is a prime example of a pre war vintage 6M equipped with the viii neck in Original Satin Silver plate. This particular variation and vintage is widely regarded as the very best of the 6M production run. Of course it has the signature rolled tone holes, lady engraving, underslung octave and G# trill. These are legendary alto saxophones that have both crisp, precise action and the dark, mellow sound that only the best RTH Conn instruments can produce.
This example is an excellent original silver plate instrument with 98%+ coverage. Even the neck is still in fine condition. This sax was recently overhauled by Mark at SaxQuest in the USA. He has used the correct Conn Reso pads and this really is a Top shelf overhaul. This 6M VIII comes with rolled tone holes and micro tuner on the neck.
Selmer Paris Super Balanced Action Tenor
Original Lacq, US Assembled, Serial 34,xxx
Folks, well the Super Balanced Action Selmer Paris Saxophone has now become one of the most desireable horns on the planet and prices have increased on these upwards quite dramatically over the last few years. Selmer was the first manufacturer to place both bell keys on the right side of the bell, improving ergonomics, action and intonation of the saxophone from it's predecessors. The Balanced Action and Super Balanced Action differ primarily from the body design and offset right hand key stacks similar to the MKVI. A very short production of 16,000 saxophones in total across all SBA flavours.
This is a super rare horn and super rare find in this condition. This is a true Jazz horn reminiscent of a time gone past. Tonally on the darker side with that irreplaceable wooly warm sound that just can't be heard in todays modern horns. This sax has a recent pad job and will play straight out of the case.

Conn 10M 1940, Serial 295,xxx
Rolled Tone Holes, G# Trill
If you've been looking for the big tenor sound, your search is over. This is a classic 90%+ original finish pre war Conn 10M. Those of you who know the breed don't need any more information, I'm sure. For the 'newbies', the 10M has great mechanics and a huge sound that is all at once superbly easy blowing, tender when you want it be, and as powerful as any tenor ever made when you push it.
There is some minor finish pitting & light stand marks, but no dents or dings worth mentioning. There is no evidence of any damage repair. There are some mods, including a Selmer style thumb rest, Alternate front high F extension (easily reversible), right hand pinky cluster (easily reversible). None of these impact sound, but are designed to improve ergonomics. Comes in a rectangular style. Sound is very reministent of that dark tonal quality from The Prez' (Lester Young) as he was synonomous with this model of saxophone. $3790 AUD
1959 Selmer MKVI Tenor, Serial 82,xxx
US Assembled, Original Lacquer & Neck
