For more info and additional high-resolution photos, visit dcsax. 1933 Selmer Super Sax alto saxophone, s/n 17827. This sax was just regulated by my repairman prior to sale.

It's playing well its entire range on an old set of pads. The condition is great for its age.

Like most horns of this era, the lacquer doesn't appear original but it was done well. The Selmer stamps are all very present and indicate that not much buffing took place. Saxophones of this era are popularly referred to as the Cigar Cutter model due to the unique octave mechanism that some of these horns have. This has a different octave mechanism than the Cigar Cutter, but it's practically the same horn.

This horn has a gorgeous, warm, open sound that is darker than the newer Balanced Action model. It takes on air well and is a joy to play. The sax comes in a vintage Selmer case which I believe is the original.
