Conn-Selmer Premiere Soprano Saxophone

What they say

Both Conn and Selmer have been the choice manufacturer of instruments for over 100 years. For the discerning saxophonist, these instruments have always offered an unrivalled tone, feel, and performance. Since the collaboration of these two leading saxophone makers, the instruments have got better and better, making use of each company's years of experience. The result is an exciting instrument that offers all that even the most experienced saxophonist requires.

Vintage unlacquered finish

The Vintage Finish on the Conn-Selmer PSS380V offers a vintage look of saxophone, while still keeping the durable quality and not changing the tone of the instrument drastically. It is very desirable with jazz saxophonists, who like the look as opposed to the conventional lacquered approach. With the Vintage finish, the patina (or tarnish) is allowed to naturally form on the instrument which gives the vintage look. Please be aware that due to the manufacturing process, your instrument may look different to the one pictured.

One Piece Body

The PSS380V Soprano Sax has been made from one piece of metal, which provides maximum resonance through the instrument due to no extra welding joins. This in turn gives a much clearer and projecting sound that is suitable for all styles of playing, particularly jazz. The wider bore on this model gives the horn a darker edge, allowing for players to explore more diverse tones not typically found in horn of a similar price range. The horn is elaborately engraved throughout which adds an extra level of elegance.
