Description
The Selmer Paris Series II 51J soprano is one of the the sweetest sounding one-pieces on the market. Even tone and a clean upper register are the hallmarks of this soprano. The Series II sopranino, soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, and bass saxophones have been the professional choice for a generation and continue to be the most popular professional saxophone in the world.
The reasons are clear: they all possess a flexible but centered tone that is natural in almost any playing situation. Yellow brass body tubes and keys resonate across the entire timbre spectrum: full-ribbed construction enhances their durability.
