Tenor Saxophone SELMER Super Action (SBA), long bell

Here we have another super nice SELMER Super Balanced Action tenor saxophone in lacquered finish. Manufactured in 1950, it still has 2 individual key guards on low Bb and Bb, before SELMER switched production to the one-piece cup key guard as it is still known today in around 1951. It is only with the current SELMER "Supreme" model that SELMER has introduced a new design for the key guards after more than 70 years. A long tradition. This only by the way.
Back to this 42xxx SELMER SBA: it already has the long bell (only the early SBA tenors still had a short bell) and the intonation is correspondingly good. The saxophone has just been completely overhauled. The metal resonators used give this SBA a nice punch if you want to play it powerfully, but you can make it sound just as soft and mellow if you change the embouchure accordingly. It's a real all-rounder!

The beautiful floral hand engraving on the cup and knee and the almost complete gold lacquer give this SELMER Super Action a radiant appearance that makes its proud age of 74 years hard to believe!
