Vintage Selmer Mk VI Tenor Saxophone M.164707 – Professionally Serviced Pro Sax
All enquiries welcome
Every now and then, a Selmer Mk VI lands on the bench that reminds you why these horns have been the gold standard for generations. Serial 164707 is one of those saxophones.
This Vintage Selmer MkVI Tenor Saxophone retains its original lacquer, preserving the character, patina and authenticity that collectors and professional players value so highly. It has just received a comprehensive professional service and is playing beautifully. Rather than needing a full overhaul, this instrument has been carefully adjusted, regulated and fine-tuned to bring out everything that makes a great Mark VI so special. The action is fast and precise, the response is effortless, and the horn speaks with that unmistakable Selmer voice.
There's a reason players still measure every professional Tenor Saxophone against a Mk VI. The sound has depth without becoming muddy, warmth without losing focus, and enough colour to shape every phrase exactly the way you hear it in your head. Whether you're leaning into a smoky ballad or driving hard through an up-tempo swing chart, this horn gives back everything you put into it.
Our comprehensive Service included careful regulation of the keywork, seating and adjustment of pads where required, lubrication of all moving parts, and a thorough play test to ensure reliable performance throughout the full range of the instrument. It is performing exactly as a professional Pro Sax should.
For players looking for a genuine Vintage Selmer MkVI, this is a wonderful opportunity to own one that's ready for the bandstand—not because it's been rebuilt, but because it's been expertly maintained and professionally serviced. The original lacquer is another reminder that this instrument has been cared for throughout its life, making it an especially appealing example of one of the world's most sought-after saxophones.
