Selmer Balanced Action Tenor
This is a Selmer Balanced Action Tenor SN#: 34465. I do not know if it was a re-lacquer or not. I had it overhauled by Weiner Music. In Long Island around 1999. It came back with the Key Clamps you see in the photos. I played it a few times after over-haul and it played great! I was playing mostly Bari and Alto then. So it did not get played very much. This horn is a one of a kind. Special Balanced Action because. Whomever had it before me had a MarkVI neck fitted to it. Once that was done the original. Neck was ostensibly lost. Spectacularly with the MarkVI neck and I have had a few Balanced Action owners. Try the horn and they unanimously said it had a better tone, and was easier blowing. Condition for an instrument made around 1938. This is a prized and rare. Example of the famous and sought after Balanced Action Tenor!

Selmer Balanced Action Trumpet 19A. Trumpet overall in very good shape. Could use spit valve corks being replaced. Case is old but not sure if it’s original but looks it. All the numbers match on this horn. Valves are great and horn plays well. It’s a 19A and is smaller bore, same model Louis Armstrong Played on. I believe this trumpet is from 1946. I had planned on having it gone through and gold plated but decided I wasn’t a collecter, just a player and have too many trumpets as it is. If no one is interested you might get a good deal!

RELISTED = NO RESERVE = NO TIME WASTERS PLEASE. Selmer Paris Super Balanced Action (SBA) Alto Saxophone 1953 – Fully overhauled and serviced December 2019. Here’s my SBA Selmer Alto which I’ve had for 30 years. I bought it off an old pro Big Band/Jazz player who had it from new. It still has plenty of it’s original lacquer however as with nearly all examples it’s well tarnished but adds to the authenticity of this remarkable instrument. It plays superb and sounds great. It’s down to preference but many people (including me) prefer the sound and feel of the SBA over the mark vi. The action is crisp and quiet. It was called the Super Balanced Action for a reason! It comes with it’s original case. I’ve kept a the modern case as it’s better protected. This is available separately. Also included is 2 Selmer mouth pieces (C and E, they are a bit faded and old but work fine) and pipe cleaner and original cap. The Selmer Super Balanced Action is considered by many to be the design that set the tone for the modern saxophone. One of the later versions of the SBA which stopped being produced in 1954, but if you’re looking at this you probably already know. It’s missing the rear key guard but doesn’t effect the instruments play=ability in any way. SENDING BY INSURED COURIER. INTERNATIONAL: WILL ARRANGE SENDING PRICE INDIVIDUALLY.

AWESOME SELMER PARIS BALANCED ACTION ALTO SAXOPHONE. Beautifully-engraved Lacquer Finish has aged to an interesting patina — as there is substantial wear it is difficult to ascertain the lacquer’s originality/ it may have been relacquered at some point. The horn plays on older pads — as it is an older pro horn you will probably want to have your tech go through it for optimal playability. There is a minor neck receiver resolder (see photo #9). Serial number 21xxx – with matching serial number also stamped on neck – indicates a 1936 manufacture date according to online charts. With nice Selmer (bundy) wood plush-lined case. There is NO mouthpiece included. The item “1936 SELMER Paris BALANCED ACTION ALTO SAXOPHONE COOL HORN” is in sale since Thursday, June 4, 2020.

Comes with original case and end plug, and Mc Gregory Model A mouthpiece, all in good condition.
