144,xxx Selmer Mark VI Alto Saxophone, Sanborn S/N, Video, Overhaul
1967 Selmer Mark VI alto saxophone, s/n 144024. Mark VI altos from this vintage are considered by many to be the very best alto saxophones that Selmer ever produced. Greats including David Sanborn and Kenny Garrett play and collect altos from this vintage. Selmer experimented with various bow lengths and ultimately changed to the medium bow shortly before this one was produced. The medium bow has the best combination of great intonation and excellent tone. For me, the late 13x,xxx and 14x,xxx altos have some extra power, focus and depth to their sound.
This sax just received an overhaul from Eric Beach, one of the best techs in the business. Eric uses top of the line materials for his overhauls including Pisoni Pro pads. Eric spends countless hours on key fitting, which gives the sax an amazing feel, like that of a new saxophone fresh from the factory.
