1958 78,xxx Selmer Mark VI Tenor Saxophone, Video
1958 Selmer Mark VI tenor saxophone, s/n 78027. Here's a 5-digit Mark VI made during one of the very best vintages for this model. These horns are prized for their tonal complexity and great feel.
I received this horn from its previous owner who had the sax repadded shortly before I acquired it. The pads are still in excellent condition. I had my tech service the sax prior to sale, ensuring that the pads are seated properly and are sealing. The horn plays easily in all registers and feels locked in. The neck is original to the horn and has a matching serial number. The lacquer isn't original. It comes in a ProTec case that is showing some exterior wear but still functions perfectly. This is a wonderful playing sax that is priced very well considering its prime vintage and how it plays.
