OVERVIEW

A tribute to the revered 1954 Mark VI.

The Selmer Paris Reference 54 professional tenor saxophone combines the coveted sonic character of the legendary Mark VI model from 1954 with modern keywork optimized for today's players. Inspired by a 1958 Mark VI, the Reference 54 tenor sax delivers a rich, full bodied tone with superior intonation and ergonomics. Highly sought after by jazz saxophonists worldwide for its iconic sound and feel, the Reference 54 is crafted to the highest standards in France.

Vintage Sound, Modern Playability


The Reference 54 tenor saxophone is inspired by Selmer's iconic Mark VI model from the 1950s, renowned for its warm, complex tone. Selmer Paris has artfully captured the vintage sonic qualities of the Mark VI while optimizing the keywork for contemporary jazz techniques. Fast, balanced and highly responsive, the Reference 54 plays with vintage soul and modern precision.

Superior Craftsmanship and Components


As with all Selmer Paris saxophones, the Reference 54 is handcrafted to exacting standards using only the finest materials. It features a one piece bell, ribbed construction and Selmer's signature rolled tone holes for a full, resonant sound. The Reference 54 includes professional-grade Selmer Paris S-80 C mouthpiece, mouthpiece cap and ligature, as well as a shaped flight case for safe transport.
