I still liked my Cannonball better, but if that Selmer is your only option, I'd go with that.
#Fake selmer reference 54 series
One thing that I had noticed was that it was almost idntical to my Cannonball (I know, many people dislike cannonballs) Big Bell Global Series Alto, which I purchased for around 1700 new. It was definitely the best saxophone I had tried their in a variety of price ranges, including the Yamaha 62II and the Selmer Super Action 80.
Hi, I walked into my local Brook Mays today, and I tried out their Selmer Artist Limited Alto (with a "Big Bell"), and I was quite satisfied with the sound and intonation. Thanks for any advice or help that you can offer.-Norm I've never heard anyone comment on this model before, so I'd greatly appreciate any reviews or info. They do have it a grand cheaper than the retail price. I've read other posts where people have commented that not all Selmer horns are good.I'm hoping that it's a quality sax, and it's just being offered cheaply because this place has a surplus of them. I was wondering if there are known problems with these Selmer LTD 54 saxes, or if they are cheaply made, etc. I've read posts on these forums about Selmer Reference 54 models, but I don't know if that's similar to this one or not.It just seems like maybe too good of a deal, when the other place wanted more for a used Yamaha student model sax with a banged up case. Here is a link to the horn: sounds like a better deal than the Yamaha, but I don't know anything about this model. I haven't been able to find much info or many opinions on the Selmer LTD 54 sax, so if any of you have experience with it, I'd be grateful for the advice. The sax looked good, but it did have small pings and scratches in places on the bell. They said it was in "like-new" condition, but the case appeared to be in very bad condition, so it makes me wonder. One of the places, had a Yamaha YTS-23 student model, and they wanted $1900 for it. I've checked around extensively at the music stores in my area, but nearly each one had no tenor saxophones in stock. This is why we perform our setup (in our ProShop) on them before delivering your new sax to you.Hey all,I was just getting into playing the saxophone, and I was wondering if I could get some advice on buying a horn. However, since most stores do not or even can not perform this setup, the player never knows this and is simply relying on the luck of the draw. Once the same 5 saxophones are properly regulated and adjusted to perfection, they become near identical saxophones that even the pickiest of players would be challenged to pick a true “favorite” horn. This is because the setup on the horn is of the utmost importance! Sometimes, a saxophone (regardless of who the manufacturer or the price point is) comes in needing 20 minutes of adjustments and then the very next one can require 2 hours! So if you were to get 5 of the same model right out of the box, they will all play different which leads people to believe that they are “good” or “bad” saxes… but the reality is that the one that was the best out of the 5 was likely the one that needed the least amount of work and on the flip side, the “bad” sax was the one that needed 2 hours worth of adjustments! Every Reference 54 tenor we send out to a customer is not released from us unless it has been completely setup in our shop first.
