Selmer Super Sax 中音薩克斯風 17,xxx，附影片，剛完成保養

1933 Selmer Super Sax alto saxophone, s/n 17558. This is a rare late model Super Sax, stamped SSS on the bell, which stood for Selmer Super Sax. The Super Sax is sometimes referred to as the Cigar Cutter model due to the unique octave mechanism that the earlier versions have. Selmer updated the octave key design around s/n 17250 and fewer than 1000 altos were made of this type before the Radio Improved model came out. Although this horn has a different octave mechanism than the Cigar Cutter, it's largely the same horn otherwise. This sax is a pleasure to play. It has a lush, warm sound that is darker than a Balanced Action but still projects remarkably well. 

My repairman just serviced the sax, so the pads seal well. My repairman replaced a handful of pads, and the rest are on the older side. The sax comes in a vintage case that's in good condition.
