Selmer Paris Reference 54 Alto Saxophone - Dark Gold Finish
Description
The Reference 54 has now been superseded by the new Selmer Supreme
Description
The Reference Series is Selmer’s nod towards their hugely popular saxophones of the past, encapsulating the spirit of these fantastic instruments into a newly refined design.
In Reference 54, Selmer took inspiration from their hugely popular Mark VI - a strong centered sound with plenty of projection, whilst redesigning the neck, bore size and ergonomics. The result is an instantly recognizable sound in a sax that is a joy to play.
Compared to many vintage instruments, the key work on the Reference 54 is smooth and easy to play with a modern layout that improves tuning stability and makes side and palm keys a lot more accessible.

Reviews
There is something about this sax that I can’t explain. Call it what you want, shazam, magic, the X-factor, this sax certainly has it. You can see, feel, hear & sense the history and pedigree coming. If you're having a love affair with an old Mark VI but are fed up with niggling intonation & reliability problems this is the answer. This horn builds on its legendary legacy to meet the demands of modern players, it will indeed become a history-maker. All I have to say is: I've now bought one! tristan@sax.co.uk
