1976年 Selmer Mark VII 次中音薩克斯風 246,xxx，影片示範，原漆

1976 Selmer Mark VII tenor saxophone, s/n 246522. This sax was just serviced by my repairman prior to sale. He regulated the pads so they are sealing great. The pads are still in great shape with a lot of life left.

The sax has its original lacquer with around 50% still intact. You'll find a lot of Mark VII saxophones with significant lacquer loss. I see this more often with Mark VIIs than with Mark VIs or later Selmers beginning with the Super Action 80. I'm not sure why this is the case, but with a Mark VII sometimes you have to embrace the vintage character that comes with it.

This horn's voice is distinctly vintage Selmer. It has a gorgeous darker core but can easily project when you push it. The entire range speaks freely down to low Bb. A good Mark VII tenor remains one of the best values in vintage Selmers, giving you a lot of the sound and character of an older Selmer without spending thousands more.
