Selmer London<\/h2>\n
Thanks to the Internet, we in North America are now more aware of saxophones from another Selmer: Selmer London<\/a>. Over the past couple of years I seen 2 previous Selmer London saxophones. Both were Orsi stencil saxophones. The first was an alto, while the second was a tenor, and both saxophones were engraved with the name Pennsylvania<\/a>.<\/p>\n A dealer from the UK, who always has some very interesting saxophones, currently has a Selmer London tenor for sale<\/a>. Like the Orsi-stencilled Selmers I already mentioned, this tenor is also engraved Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n Source: shresthakimi<\/span><\/p>\n However, who the manufacturer of this Selmer London saxophone is, is somewhat of a mystery.<\/p>\n Source: shresthakimi<\/span><\/p>\n Now shresthakimi seems to think that this horn is German, but I have my doubts. It doesn’t really look like any vintage German sax that I have seen. (Except for the triple strap ring, which is very B&S-like<\/a>.)<\/p>\n Source: shresthakimi<\/span><\/p>\n This is how shresthakimi describes this interesting, vintage Selmer London sax:<\/p>\n Pennsylvania Tenor Saxophone<\/p>\n Distributed by<\/p>\n Selmer London<\/p>\n Foreign<\/p>\n likely a German manufacture<\/p>\n in good playing order<\/p>\n top to bottom it plays fine<\/p>\n see picture<\/p>\n there is also included a warranty card (by now its expired anyway)<\/p>\n comes in Berkeley of London with 2 keys<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Here are the rest of the pics, which might help you identify what brand of saxophone this is:<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n Source: shresthakimi<\/span><\/p>\n The neck brace is very distinctive, and I have seen something similar before. I just don’t remember where anymore. Also, the key guards look familiar, but again, I’m drawing a blank as to what brand of horns have the same ones….<\/p>\n ….Meanwhile, a little while later….<\/p>\n After a lot of searching around on the ‘Net this morning, I came up with another horn that looked like this, and it sold on eBay<\/a> in December. The seller claimed it was a Borgani-made Alexandre Super.<\/p>\n Further searching of Alexandre Super seems to confirm that these were indeed made by Borgani. By extension then, it seems safe to assume that this particular Selmer London, Pennsylvania tenor was also made by Borgani. Mystery solved.<\/p>\n There you go shresthakimi, you can update your auction now. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n If you are interested in this Borgani-made, Selmer London, Pennsylvania tenor saxophone, then you only have until February 28 to pick it up<\/a>. The Buy It Now price for this vintage stencil sax is \u00a3465.00, which eBay estimates to be $702.57 US. The auction doesn’t mention anything about offers, and none are shown.<\/p>\n![\"saxophone,](\"http:\/\/bassic-sax.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/Bell-Lower-Stack.jpg\" "\\"Bell")
