For sale is a vintage Selmer Paris Mark VI Alto Saxophone, serial number M.209xxx Manufactured in 1973, this is a "Late Model" Mark VI, prized by commercial and lead players for its projection and power. This instrument has been Relacquered in the past but remains in Great Condition and is housed in a premium BAM Case. It offers the legendary Selmer sound at a fraction of the collector's market price.

This is the ultimate "Gigging Pro's Horn." It is perfect for the serious player who wants the genuine acoustic soul and keywork of a Mark VI but doesn't want to pay $8,000 for a museum piece. If you need a horn that you can take to a bar gig, outdoor festival, or pit orchestra without fearing for its safety, this is the one.

The "Late Model" Mark VI Sound

While early Mark VIs are famous for being dark and mellow, the late models (like this 1973) have a different character.

  • Power & Projection: Late Mark VIs are generally punchier and brighter. They were designed to compete with electric instruments, making them the preferred vintage choice for David Sanborn-style pop, R&B, and rock playing.
  • "Big" Sound: Often referred to by players as having a "Larger Bore" feel, these late models offer a wider dynamic range and a more open blow than their 1950s counterparts.
  • Intonation: By 1973, Selmer had refined the bow design to improve the intonation of the low notes, which can be warbly on earlier models.
  • Condition Report: This instrument was Relacquered at some point in its life. The finish is currently in Great Condition, showing that the work was done well and the horn has been cared for since. The engraving is visible, and the brass is healthy.
  • Premium Protection: Includes a BAM Case. BAM cases are the industry standard for protection, lightweight durability, and style, adding significant value to this package.
