Very rare: 1952 SELMER Paris Super Balanced (SBA) Tenor Saxophone, very beautiful original condition, 50xxx
Every now and then, some of our Legendary saxophones find their way back to us and we are able to offer these saxophones once again.
In this case, it is a fortunate opportunity that we are able to present this beautiful SELMER Super Balanced Action tenor saxophone in our collection, as SELMER SBA tenors in lacquered and authentic condition are very rare and increasingly hard to find on the SELMER market!
We are offering this beautiful SBA on behalf of a customer, as the current owner would like to concentrate on playing classical music and this 1952 SELMER Super Action with its beautiful round, “mellow” sound character is more suited to the jazz or funk genre.
We thoroughly overhauled this SBA 4 years ago and gave it nothing less than a SAXOPHONIC premium general overhaul. As it has been played very little since then, the pads are still as good as new. The mechanics certainly are, as we used our INOX oversize rods during the overhaul. So the horn runs like a charm and is ready to take to “your” stage!
Only a few thousand SELMER Super Action (SBA) tenors were produced by SELMER. Over the decades, some of them are certainly no longer available and many are very tinkered with and no longer really good to use. Therefore, a good SELMER SBA tenor saxophone like this one is not only a saxophone that can be used on a daily basis – whether professionally or as a hobby – but also a good investment, as these rarities are becoming rarer and rarer to come by…
Feel free to make an appointment to test play, maybe it’s “your” Sax…
In addition to the saxophones presented on our website, we also have a large number of other “Legendary Saxophones”: we have around 150 SELMER Mark VI, Balanced Action (BA) and Super Action (SBA) in stock! When you visit us, we will be happy to put together a selection from our stock based on your criteria so that you can find “your” legendary saxophone!
