Thank you for viewing. This is a tenor saxophone. It's a Henri Selmer Mark VI (made in 1969). ※ Instant purchase is not possible. Please be sure to comment. Those who purchase immediately will have their order canceled. ◯ Listing History This is a Mark VI from Selmer of France. It's in the 170,000 serial number range. Purchased from a major musical instrument store about 5-6 years ago. As this is an expensive item, we would appreciate it if you would comment. ◯ Storage Condition → As shown in the photos, it was stored by a professional musician in a YAMAHA soundproof room with constant temperature and humidity. Adjustments have been made as needed, and the pads are in perfect condition. It was only used for studio recordings in the soundproof room and was not taken outside. It was used twice in live events in 2022. It was used for both POPS and JAZZ. ◯ Tone The 1969 model (late 160,000s to 170,000s serial numbers) is a popular period for the Mark VI, and it is highly regarded for its balanced sound. It features the rich resonance unique to the Mark VI and can be used effectively in ensembles and solos in both POPS recordings and JAZZ performances. The 170,000 serial number range is characterized by a "smooth and rounded tone." While approaching the modern weightiness of the Mark VII, it retains the "singing" tone of a vintage instrument. In jazz, it is suitable for soft and lyrical styles like Stan Getz and modern expressions like Michael Brecker. ◯ Trial Playing We are sorry, but we cannot accommodate trial playing.
