Henri Selmer Paris Signature Tenor Saxophone, Antique Lacquer

The tenor Signature embodies the evolution of the Series III model, improving its acoustic and ergonomic qualities while drawing inspiration from the latest innovations applied to the Supreme model.

A saxophone that is at once traditional and a beacon of modernity, the tenor Signature is embellished with original engraving in the Art Deco style, paying homage to the age-old techniques handed down through generations of artisans at the SELMER factory in Mantes-la-Ville since 1919.

Signature alto: The renewal of tradition

In pursuit of continual development in its catalogue of instruments, Henri SELMER Paris presents its new range of saxophones: Signature.

The tenor Signature is a reinvention of the Series III model, which has been a favorite of numerous saxophonists for its acoustic qualities and its ergonomic comfort since its launch in 1995.

Its ergonomics benefits from the latest innovations, updated for the Supreme: a new 3-point neck receiver system for better sound homogeneity, a nickel-silver tightening ring for greater density in this sensitive zone, an octave key with Teflon supports for more mechanical fluidity.

Concept:

The Signature name highlights Henri SELMER Paris’s identity as an instrument inventor and manufacturer, established over the course of the company’s history.

The acoustic qualities of the tenor Signature are characterized by great flexibility of play. It allows for easy passage from a subtone to a timbred sound, regardless of the register.

The increased diameter of its neck receiver offers impressive power and projection.

Strongly inspired by the Series III, its ergonomics is suitable for all musicians, regardless of their ability level and musical genre.
