Description THIS IS A SUPER  EXPLOSIVE SOUNDING MARK VI FRENCH SELMER TENOR SAX. THE SERIAL IS # 77xxx  DATES THIS TO 1958. USA ENGRAVED WITH THE BEST FLORAL PATTERNS!! THE NECK CARRIES THE SAME SERIAL #. 77xxx. THE NECK IS STRAIGHT AND WAS NEVER DAMAGED OR MODIFIED. THE NECK CORK IS FINE BUT A WEE BIT  THIN SO YOU CAN SEE I HAD SOME PAPER FOR MY LINK EB TENOR MPC.....THE SAX HAS ITS ORIGINAL LACQUER WITH NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR, AS YOU CAN SEE IN MY PHOTOS. HAS LACQUER WEAR AND SOME SMALL DINGS, DENTS, SCRATCHES AND THE USUAL STUFF, A SMALL FLAT SPOT ON THE BOTTOM BOW. NO SOLDERS OR WELDS. IT WAS ONCE OVERHAULED BY OLEG IN LOS ANGELES  APPROX 15 YEAERS AGO AND STILL HAS HIS RED TREATED PADS ON THE LOWER STACK & THE WHOLE UPPER STACK HAS NEW PADS!  THE ACTION IS JUST FANTASTIC AND THE PADS ARE REALLY SEATING WELL. WHEN YOUR FINGERS HIT THE PEARLS YOU CAN FEEL IT POP. THE LOW Bb PINKY KEY HAS A AN OLEG KEY MODIFIER MAKES IT BIGGER TO THE LEFT HAND PINKY AND IS JUST ATTCHED BY A FEW SMALL SCREWS..THE SAX  HAS A MIX OF METAL RESONATORS. SOME RESO TECH DOMED, SOME NOYACKS. I MEAN THE ACTION IS REALLY GREAT THE REAL DEAL FOR PLAYERS. THE TONE IS BIG, BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL, A MIX OF COLORS AND IF YOUR EYES WERE CLOSED YOU WOULD FEEL YOU WERE PLAYING ON A 86' LIKE THE BRECKER SERIES. TO ME THEY ARE SOM CLOSE IN PRODUCTION DATES THERES ONLY GOOD ONES AND GREAT ONES THIS IS GREAT!! IT HAS LOST LACQUER AND LOOKS A TAD FUNKY BUT WHEN YOU PLAY THIS YOU HAIR WILL STAND UP AS ITS JUST DYNAMITE. THE CASE  IS A WORN 1960'S CASE THAT NEEDS WORK ONE CORNER BROKEN, THE LATCHES STILL WORK. BUT STILL FUNCTIONAL... HAS A LARGE CORE & TUNES ALMOST PERFECTLY IN ALL REGISTERS.
