The Series II: A Performer's Dream
The Selmer Super Action 80 Series II is a modern classic, celebrated for its robust and authoritative sound. While its cosmetic condition is that of a horn that has been played hard, its incredible tone and feel are a testament to its quality. This tenor was chosen by a professional because it sounds so good, and the consistent wear is simply a byproduct of its quality and constant use.
-
Incredible, Banging Tone: The Series II tenor is known for its huge, full-bodied sound with a powerful core and incredible projection. It's the kind of horn that can fill a room and still maintain a rich, soulful voice. It's no wonder it's a favorite among working musicians.
-
Proven Reliability: The Selmer Series II's reputation for impeccable intonation and comfortable, fast keywork is a huge reason it's trusted by pros. The horn plays effortlessly and feels great under the fingers, making it a reliable workhorse for any gig.
-
A Vibe of its Own: This horn has a truly unique and honest aesthetic. It has a natural patina with "flea bites" of lacquer loss throughout the body, with some areas having been completely rubbed off (approximately 70% of the original lacquer remains). Some verdigris is also found on certain sections, adding to its road-worn look. This isn't a factory-fresh horn; it's a seasoned veteran that has earned its stripes.
This is the perfect tenor for a player who values incredible sound and performance over a pristine, new-looking finish. It's a professional instrument with a story to tell.
