Selmer Paris 92LTD22 Modele 2022 Supreme Alto Saxophone Dark Gold Matte Lacquer

The Supreme alto saxophone from Selmer Paris is distinguished by a specific, innovative and creative design. Its exclusive matte dark gold finish is highlighted by the contrast of a palette of blacks on the guards, the body-to-bell grenadilla wood medallion, the pads and the mother-of-pearls. The patterns of its engraving, resolutely Art Déco, evoke the Paris of the Roaring Twenties, a euphoric interlude between the two wars, where the intense desire for transgression and avant-garde was an ideal setting for the saxophone, which was then just waiting to flourish. The gold-plated thumb rests, neck receiver climping ring and body-to-bell reinforce the precious character of this limited series, each piece of which being numbered. The Supreme alto also carries the qualities of the models that preceded it. To mark this historical link, the name Modèle 2022 echoes the Modèle 22 released in 1922.
