SELMER MARK VI TENOR SAXOPHONE #154760. Lacquer is 90% original. Mark VI tenor saxophone #154760 was manufactured in 1968, right in the middle of the production run. This one-owner horn was played on, but never toured with or gigged with an awful lot. As a result, most of its lacquer (about 90%) is intact, and there are very few blemishes on the horn. A few scratches front of bell to bow ring, caused by a sax stand; strap ring; body contact side of main tube (surprisingly not along the body side of the bell, what we refer to as “chair scratches”). Looks like a dent was professionally removed from the bow, leaving a scar in the lacquer. Bit of wear on the key touches, and some discoloration on the keys themselves, probably some splatter from a “wet” player. Neck looks like it was pulled down slightly at some point, leaving the crease marks along the side, though it appears to have been straightened. We’ve tried to show these areas in the photos. Most but not all of the pads have been replaced and look quite fresh. There are a few that look like they are original. All pads have brown plastic domed resonators. This horn has been gone over in the shop, to seat all pads and regulate and lubricate the mechanism. Of course you may want to have your own horn tech go over it and set it up to your specs.
