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!
