Well if you are, there is a beauty on eBay at the moment<\/a>. This late model Mark VI has the newer-shaped spatula keys already, but if I were looking for a short wrap bass, that would not be a deterrent for me\u2014all the new ones have keys shaped like this anyway<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I would also not be deterred by this Mark VI’s range, or its lack of a bis Bb. Buy hey, that’s me. :2cents:<\/p>\n

The seller describes this pristine looking horn like this:<\/p>\n

I’m selling a beautiful Selmer Bass Sax that I played in the recent run of West Side Story on Broadway these last two years. Serial #369854. The horn is as close to “like new” condition as possible. There is a tiny dent\/impression on the bottom, and a few scratches around the neckstrap hook and on the neck. Range is from low Bb to high Eb. No bis key. Keyboard is very comfortable (unlike a Conn or other older horns) and very easy to get around on. Intonation is very good. Great core to the sound. Comes with a Selmer C* bass mpc and a bunch of reeds. The case is a very protective but heavy anvil case. If you’re in the New York area, you’re welcome to contact me to try it. I’m happy to offer a no-questions-asked (though I’d be curious) money back guarantee, minus shipping and handling, which might be a lot due to the weight of case\/horn.<\/p>\n

The horn can be heard on the recent cast recording of West Side Story.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
