Selmer Super Sax/Cigar Cutter Alto

Condition:

This horn is in extremely good condition for its age. We believe that it has had a good quality factory re-lacquer a very long time ago. The engraving is still sharp and the sax has now developed the most incredible patina – it looks stunning! 

It has the sweet focused sound of the Selmer but as with all cigar cutters has a slight Conn-like spread to the sound. The Sax is the best combination of a Selmer sound and a Conn sound and packs a punch when pushed.  You get the warm focus of the Selmer with a room filling spread of broad complexity like a conn. It simply plays huge!! Intonation and projection are both excellent. 

The keyword is excellent for the period and really rather advanced for a sax of this era, you’ll have no problem with the ergonomics. It’s easy blowing too – you can whizz around it no problem and it suits all styles of music in both solo and ensemble settings.
