The Selmer Mark VI Tenor Saxophone, serial number 234604, dating from circa 1975, is an exceptional one-owner "closet horn" that has survived in remarkably original condition. Having spent most of its life carefully stored rather than heavily played, this rare vintage tenor saxophone offers a unique opportunity to own one of the finest-preserved examples from the final years of the legendary Mark VI production.

Unlike many professional instruments that have seen decades of extensive use, this Mark VI retains the originality and character that collectors and discerning players value most. Its outstanding cosmetic condition, combined with its exceptional mechanical integrity, makes it equally desirable as a performance instrument or a long-term collectible.

This 2nd hand Tenor Saxophone has been mechanically refurbished by an experienced technician. The mechanism has been carefully inspected, regulated, adjusted, and play-tested to ensure flawless operation while preserving the instrument's original vintage integrity.

The result is the unmistakable Mark VI playing experience—effortless response, superb intonation, and the rich, centred tone that has made the model the gold standard for professional saxophonists for more than seventy years.

Why Choose This Mark VI?

The Selmer Mark VI is widely regarded as the most influential professional saxophone ever produced. Its legendary reputation has been earned through exceptional craftsmanship, remarkable consistency, and a tonal versatility that has made it the preferred instrument of generations of the world's finest saxophonists.

This circa 1975 example is especially desirable because it is a genuine one-owner closet horn—an instrument that has spent decades carefully stored rather than subjected to the heavy wear commonly found on professional saxophones of this age. Original examples in this condition become increasingly difficult to find, particularly from the final production period of the Mark VI.

For collectors, originality is everything. For players, it means experiencing a Mark VI that has retained the feel, response, and resonance intended by the Selmer factory. The combination of exceptional preservation, professional mechanical refurbishment, and historical significance makes this instrument one of the most desirable examples available.

If you're searching for a vintage Selmer Mark VI Tenor Saxophone, a mechanically refurbished 2nd hand tenor saxophone, or a rare pro luxury deluxe French saxophone, this one-owner "closet horn", serial number 234604, represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire an exceptionally original example of the world's most iconic tenor saxophone.
