SELMER Super Action 80 serie II (1986-)

Selmer Paris came out with the updated Super Action 80 Series II in 1986, and it is the answer to the trivia question, “What is the longest running Selmer model?” The Series II is still in production today, and is still very popular. With subtle improvements over the first series, it is a similar horn physically, but sonically these do tend to play darker. Selmer moved quickly to this new model. The first was a tenor at # 380423, and by # 386639, all four saxes (soprano through bari) were in production.

 

The Series II was updated in 2010 with new "Jubilee" style engraving. The octave key on the neck was also slightly changed. No other changes were made, and besides the key and engraving, the horns are otherwise identical to the earlier models.
