Selmer Reference 54 Alto Saxophone

This Selmer Reference 54 alto saxophone is an exceptional example of one of Selmer Paris's most celebrated modern designs. Inspired by the legendary Mark VI, the Reference 54 combines the character and response associated with vintage Selmer saxophones with the refined ergonomics and reliability of a modern professional instrument.

This particular alto is in outstanding cosmetic condition, with beautifully preserved gold lacquer and crisp, detailed engraving. It has clearly been well cared for throughout its life. The pads remain in excellent condition with plenty of life remaining, making this an excellent opportunity for a serious saxophonist looking for a professional instrument without the immediate expense of an overhaul.

One particularly desirable feature of this saxophone is the inclusion of two genuine Selmer Reference 54 necks: the version 1 and version 2 reference 54 necks. The second neck has a larger tenon which helps the horn play in tune better.

The instrument has just received a complete clean, oil, and adjust at NJ Instrument Repair, ensuring that its mechanism and regulation have been thoroughly inspected and refined for optimal playing performance.

This Reference 54 comes with its original Selmer case and is backed by NJ Instrument Repair's two-year warranty, providing confidence in both the instrument and the work performed.

For the advancing collegiate musician, dedicated performer, or professional saxophonist, this is a beautifully preserved Reference 54 with the added versatility of two factory Selmer necks, professionally serviced and ready to perform.
