With the top shelf overhaul, it will last you a long time to come. It really rips in the palm keys and altissimo! Many Mark VI's from this era are approaching $10k, and this one is bargain priced to sell fast. Compare Search ( Please select at least 2 keywords ) Most Searched Keywords. Very light on resistance and overall a free blowing instrument. This tenor plays with a rich and very open sound, with good balance up and down and a strong core. A modern Selmer Reference series neck would go with the horn well. The neck still plays well with the horn, but if you are hard on your gear, you may consider purchasing a replacement neck in the future. Further repair is not feasible, as the weakened metal may crack again. The proper repair was made with silver solder rather than a big ugly patch, but the neck still feels a bit lumpy on that side.

It is the original neck, with matching serial number, but it was pulled down in the past, and when it was brought back up, it cracked on one side. The neck is not in great shape unfortunately. The original American style engraving is pretty faint, having been mostly buffed off, and there are signs of past repair and resolders here and there.
It was stripped long ago and is currently unlacquered. The sax will get a fresh once-over in our shop before shipping, where we'll make sure everything is still sealing well, and that the sax is in perfect adjustment before going out. Includes Sax Soprano, Sax Tenor, Sax Alto, Harmon Mute, Trumpet, Trumpet Cup Mute, Trumpet Staccato, Trumpet Swell, Piccolo Trumpet, Trombone, Trombone Cup Mute, Trombone Wah Mute, Tuba, Brass Ensemble, French Horn, and more. We repadded it using Valentino Pro leather pads and oversized, flat brass TM Custom screwback resonators. DSK Brass features 2 layers and 23 brass instruments, including the trumpet.
This tenor was overhauled in our repair shop in the last couple years, and has not seen a lot of playing time since. It has a lifetime of playing in its rear view mirror, but still has plenty to offer a new owner. This is a solid horn for the pro player on a budget, someone seeking an early 60s vintage Mark VI at a much lower price than you typically see them.
