Selmer Paris Super Action 80 Series II Soprano Saxophone (Mid-Late '90's) - A Classic Reborn
We're delighted to offer this Selmer Paris Super Action 80 Series II Soprano Saxophone, a true gem for any saxophonist seeking a blend of vintage charm and modern playability. This particular instrument, with serial number #503979, was crafted in the mid to late '90's and represents a significant advancement in Selmer's soprano saxophone design.
Here's what we love about it:
- Effortless Response: The Series II soprano is known for its incredibly responsive and free-blowing nature, making it a joy to play across all registers.
- Rich, Harmonically Rich Tone: It produces a warm, resonant tone with a beautiful core and excellent projection. We find it particularly well-suited for both classical and contemporary music.
- Improved Intonation: Selmer made significant strides in intonation with the Series II, resulting in a more accurate and stable instrument compared to its predecessors.
- Enhanced Ergonomics: The keywork is comfortable and well-placed, making it easy to navigate even the most challenging passages.
Key Advancements:
- One-Piece Body: Unlike earlier Selmer sopranos, the Series II features a one-piece body design, which contributes to its improved intonation and overall stability.
- Redesigned Neck: The neck was also redesigned for better response and tonal flexibility.
- Improved Keywork: The keywork was refined for smoother action and greater comfort.
A Legacy of Innovation:
Henri Selmer Paris, founded in 1885, has a long and storied history of crafting exceptional woodwind instruments. While the Super Action 80 Series II soprano is no longer in production, it remains a sought-after model for its unique blend of vintage character and modern playability. Selmer continues to innovate and build upon its legacy with its current line of saxophones, including the "Supreme" model.
