Open to offers! My main instrument for 6+ years. I have done my most recent recordings on it (since 2020), which you can hear at https://offerup.com/redirect/?o=bm9haHBldHRpYm9uLmNvbQ== or on my self-named YouTube channel. This horn is remarkable! Sporting a huge, beautifully engraved bell, abalone key touches, and snappy modern key work set up by a great artist technician in Seattle. This horn screams with brilliant overtones, but also whispers with great intensity. It likes a brighter mouthpiece. To cut weight (almost 1 pound) and allow better manipulation of the horn via the crook, I had the high-F# hole sealed with a brass cap. This could easily be removed, tone hole re-leveled, and put back into action. All posts and rods for the F# mechanism have been retained and are included. You can see where the posts originally were throughout the body. Flight case from factory is great with a big internal storage compartment and wheels that come in handy! The front rubber feet fell off, so it doesn’t free-stand any longer. Selling because I am getting interested in old Selmers and don’t have the space to store multiple baritones.
