Description

A piece of saxophone history:  an original Series 1922 Selmer saxophone – not a ‘Series 22’ – this is a very rare find and as noted by Selmers official website extract below very few of these exist.

 

This wonderful saxophone, made in 1921 is in excellent condition with almost all of the original silverplate intact and no parts missing or modified over the years.   The saxophone is in playing order though the pads are worn and to make this a great playing instrument again we recommend a degree of restoration and repair should be undertaken.  Nevertheless I doubt that I will be playing so well  at 93 years old!

 

The advertised price here is to buy the saxophone ‘as is’ or you can choose to have the instrument supplied to you fully restored.    Please telephone us to discuss the many possible restoration options – from a simple repad to a full ‘as new’ restoration.

 

This super instrument is a real collectors item and a piece of saxophone history.
