186,xxx Selmer Mark VI Tenor Saxophone, 99% Original Lacquer, Just Serviced
186,xxx Selmer Mark VI tenor saxophone with approximately 99% original lacquer. This horn is in excellent condition, considering it's over 50 years old. The neck is original to the horn and has never been bent down. The bell flare looks perfect. There was a very small hairline crack beginning on the low Eb tone hole that my tech soldered. It's in an out of the way place that is difficult to spot unless you're looking for it. There's also some minor dentwork that I see performed mainly on the bottom bow.
My tech just serviced the sax, replacing 7 pads, the neck cork and several key corks and felts. The rest of the pads appear to be original, but they're sealing well and the horn feels tight and locked in. The sax comes in its original case and both zippers work.
