  • Selmer Super Balanced Action Tenor 1954 Near Mint Original Lacquer Original Pads Amazing 53933

    $ 22,500

    Well, I’m asking a lot for this one, but there hasn’t been an original pads, original case, undamaged, American-engraved, original lacquer Selmer SBA tenor on the site in quite some time, and I think it’s rare and great enough to warrant it. The nicest violins, guitars, flutes, bassoons, pianos, cellos – almost any other instrument – are all way more expensive than this, so I think it’s pretty reasonable relatively speaking. The original case is beautiful, original pads and Tone-x resonators are intact. No damage at all. This one is great!

    $ 18,000

    This is an exceptionally fine playing Selmer Super (Balanced) Action Tenor saxophone with gorgeous original lacquer. it had a nice overhaul done about 6 years ago that is still going strong. Pads are great, and it plays beautifully. This is on consignment, and if I could afford to buy it off the consignor to keep myself, I would.

    Selmer Super Balanced Action Tenor Original Silver Recent Overhaul Excellent Condition 38828

    $ 15,500

    This is an amazing original silver plate Selmer Super (Balanced) Action Tenor saxophone from 1949 that is in excellent condition with a recent overhaul and plays GREAT! You’d be hard-pressed to find a better SBA for a better price anywhere right now. This horn had a very nice full overhaul just a couple of years ago, and it was put away by a collector in the meantime, so the overhaul is nearly fresh. I just got it completely checked over cleaned up, tuned up and ready to go, so it is playing to its full potential! That’s something that is pretty rare in a vintage Selmer. The condition is beautiful, as you can see, with almost all of the original silver plate intact. This is similar to the SBA’s played Chris Potter, Joshua Redman, and Branford Marsalis, and it’s slightly earlier than Coltrane’s SBA but has the same double bell key guards etc. I’m selling this in a brand new BAM Cabine tenor case in blackj, which really sets off the look of the horn, and represents about a $500+ added value included in the price. You’d be hard pressed to find a nicer, cleaner, better playing example of an SBA anywhere near this price. It will also go up in value while you own it. I wouldn’t be surprised if it went up quite a bit, because this is definitely one of the nicer examples of this type of SBA tenor in existence.
