The renewal continues for the Selmer brand saxophones. After the release of the excellent high-end violas and tenors, the leading brand in the world is adding the Signature models to its catalog.

Evolution of the Series II and Series III models

They are the evolution of the iconic Series II and Series III models which have been very popular since their releases in the 80s and 90s.
The Signature is part of the continuity of a desire for innovation and development.
The Selmer catalog is homogenized by inserting the Signature between the Axos and Supreme models.

The signature selmer combines precision and beauty

As said above, the new Signature alto saxophone is inspired by the famous Series II model released in 1986 and which has delighted many saxophonists.
We therefore naturally find in this new instrument all that made the Series II famous, namely its sound characteristics (round and generous) and its ergonomics. But we also find all the innovation of the top-of-the-range Supreme model: better accuracy in the treble, easier to transmit bass, a 3-point jar tightening ring promoting homogeneity and better projection.

A saxophone with an Art Deco style

For the Signature tenor saxophone, the innovations are the same as for the viola, but this time evolving the Series III model from 1995, more appreciated than the Series II for its wide and generous acoustic qualities, and its ergonomics.
Both are adorned with a magnificent engraving reminiscent of the 1920s, the decade which saw the birth of the first Selmer saxophone. We see tools, saxophone plans, manufacturing elements paying homage to the craftsmen, all nested in an Art Deco-style decor.
As with the Supreme, the Signature is available in several finishes: varnished, black, brushed, passivated, silver, solid silver and gold plated.

The Selmer Signature comes with many accessories

Many accessories are also provided: BAM brand case, Selmer Concept mouthpiece, body and jar swabs, grease, cord and cloth.
These new saxophones will undoubtedly appeal to a very large audience, whatever the style they play, and will leave their mark on the history of Selmer.
