Vintage Tenor Saxophone by Pennsylvania (Endorsed by Selmer, mk6 stencil) Serial No: B4743 (From some research and speaking to other sax specialists I believe this dates between the 40's to 50's) The saxophone has just had a COMPLETE overhaul including all pads, springs, felts/corks from a top technician. It comes as a full outfit including a choice of mouth piece (listed below) and an all leather selmer gig bad (heavily padded with seperate neck/accessories pouch). The horn has a great full sound which is aided by the large bell flair. The keywork feels fantastic and is very smooth, all mother of pearl key touches are intact and it has an overall solid feel. This is a really good example of a vintage horn with a big sound and feel. The laquer has wear throughout but is consistant with an instrument of its age and the original finish only adds to its charm. I am unwillingly having to part with this sax due too it being not used enough and sat around and I have several others. Great horn for jazz players and I have used this horn in a big band line up and solo/small combo work alike. I have personally played this tenor with a Berg Larsen 110/1 SMS stainless steel which gives the horn a massive sound and it stood up well in a soul/funk band horn line.#If you are looking for that authentic 'mark 6' vintage tenor sound then this is
