This is my first visit to the Selmer section of SotW, reason being I didn't ever envisage owning one.
That has now been revised, I'm looking to upgrade to a better horn and although I will never be able to afford a Mark VI a friend allowed me a short session on his Mark VII tenor, they do not get the kudos of the VI and I have heard quite a few people say the VII was Selmers big mistake. I might have just played a good one but I loved it!
Where are all the VII's, very few on Ebay, same on SotW marketplace, if they are so bad why are there not lots for sale?
If I wanted to buy one how much do they come in at, I'm trying to work out if I could afford one, I don't want a looker I want a player that will help me through the rest of my grades, light action, good intonation.
Any observations would be gratefully received.
Thanks
