Selmer Super Action 80 Series II Alto Saxophone

Description:

The “Super Action 80 Series II” alto saxophone is without doubt the world’s most popular professional alto saxophone.

Its very open, harmonically rich sound and excellent projective power make it a particularly versatile instrument.

In classical and jazz, its sound power and wide dynamic range make it the instrument of choice, ideal in the Quartet as well as in larger groups or concert bands. The extremely well-balanced mechanism offers great precision in playing.

Made up of more than 600 parts for the alto, the saxophone is a particularly complex instrument. At Henri SELMER Paris, the production line is completely integrated enabling both better control of the quality and of the supply process.

In Selmer's workshops, located in Mantes-la-Ville since 1919, nearly 500 craftspeople mobilize a traditional, unique and authentic know-how, combining high technology with the respect of the artisanal instrument manufacturing.
