Selmer Balanced Action 次中音薩克斯風 25,xxx，剛完成大修

1937 Selmer Balanced Action tenor saxophone. I recently acquired this saxophone from the daughter of the original owner, who was a professional saxophonist. I sent the sax out to Mike Livingston for a mechanical overhaul, who truly did exceptional work on this sax. The sax feels tight and locked in in every register. The low range speaks very easily, a great mark of his exacting detail during this overhaul. The neck is original to the horn and very straight. The sax comes in a vintage Selmer case. Both zippers move freely, but one handle is broken and will eventually need repair. If you're interested in purchasing a Bam case to go along with this sax, please contact me for a great price.

This is a great sounding horn. Selmer's attempt to recreate this 1936 Balanced Action with their Reference 36 doesn't do these older horns justice. There is tonal expression that modern horns can't match.  Nothing against the Reference 36 which is a great horn, but it's nothing like an early Balanced Action. My advice: save thousands and buy the real thing.
