This King Silversonic is exceptionally well preserved, it has been played very little. The pads are original along with everything else including the original packing label, factory inspection tag and King Instruments catalog 1970 with a price of $835.00! It currently plays, fairly well but being original pads it will need an overhaul for sure. It’s in very nice condition and plays with a rathe...

    I agree with this 100% and also on the equipment your sound is your sound. Anything that changes your sound to something you can’t recreate is sort of like cheating. It’s not real and not you. With all the years of practice perfecting a craft why go for something that then takes all of that away to sound like something that isn’t real. Every sound is unique and when our with others can be great.

    @furtherdefinitions1 10 месяцев назад

    I play sax, and I also sold a lot of saxophones, and so I had the opportunity to play literally hundreds of vintage saxophones, including more than a few dozen Mark VI's. Of course, when it came to ergonomics, the Balanced Action, SBA, and Mark VI were improvements. However, when it came to sound, I have always found them rather inconsistent, and I learned directly from Jerome Selmer himself that the people who built Mark VI's did not work from blueprints and also had freedom to make changes in bore sizes and neck dimensions, etc., from one sax to another. They were experienced builders that knew what they were doing. Like anyone, when you make changes, some work, others don't. He also joked that if the craftsmen made love to his wife or girlfriend the night before, he may have done a better job than if he didn't. He said that serial numbers were only good to determine when they were made, but not whether a certain serial number was better than another. The best sounding alto I have ever played and still do is my 1939 Conn 6M. I do have a 64 Mark VI, a great horn, but the Conn has a more powerful, vocal like tone. BTW, even though its mechanism is more "primitive", it is actually more stable over a longer period of use than the Mark VI. I have longer playing times between servicing the keys, and the rolled tone holes allow the pads to last longer. Anyway, Jerome Selmer also said that while he appreciated that Mark VI's are valued, he disputed that they were better than newer horns, as technically, there have been even more improvements in mechanisms, tone hole placement, intonation, etc. Of course, any horn sounds better when it's played often, building the instrument's resonance. However, what's the best saxophone? The one that resonates with you and gives you the sound you want.

    • @HornedTube
      @HornedTube 11 месяцев назад

      I did not overhaul that horn, Besides that not all horns are built/designed to have these two pads at exactly the same height. SBA tenor for example, B is necessarily lower than Bb due to the mechanical regulation. They improved that on MK VI, but the soprano's vary as well.

    @leanmchungry4735 Год назад

    This is an interesting look at a WT DR Link, the discoveries here accord well with my own experience on STMs, DRs and others: small tipped STMs' brightness and tone doesn't carry over well to bigger tip openings. Many want the same sound but with more meat and volume from a bigger tip, but it hardly ever works like that, whatever, this one sounds good.

    You nailed all of the things, lol. So many Mark IVs have been ruined by horrible repair work and damage from 50-70 years of wear and abuse, not to mention neck pull-down. Selmer didn't fart without having a plan. Each model of Selmer back to the late 20s was far ahead of their time. I prefer the mid-run of the SBA myself, but mileage varies. I've only played about 100 or so Mark VIs and all of them were good. Some were very good, and a small handful were lights-out. I also believe that a great repairman can turn an average horn into a great horn if the damage and past hack repairs are corrected. I've seen you restore some horns that fit that description. The way you describe these horns is like a wine connoisseur and you're right, fine wine indeed. I'll leave the haters with this. If Selmer saxophones aren't the best, why do all modern manufacturers of saxophones use right-side bell keys and incorporate pivot screws?

    I have a Mark VI, 1954 model, S/N 56xxx ( I don't why we don't give the full serial #). It was bought used for me in 1958. We paid $450 for it-my father could not believe a saxophone would cost that much. In 1958, that amount was about one month's salary. I recently had it overhauled, new pads, springs, fixed the leaks & it plays so good-like new. I am not the market to sell, but just curious as to how much it is worth. No dents, never been dropped, it just shows its age to finish but most important plays great! Oh by the way it is also a tenor.

    Great offering from Marin, gee those EB STMs on the mkvi sound good. The differences in the machining of the tables, from denim to straight lines caught my eye. One of the best playing STMs I have is a small font 5* Florida, with nickle plating and denim machining on the table, so perhaps a transitional Florida finished by Babbitt, or did Ben Harrod have a machine for the tables, the table was machined and then nickel plated beneath the gold? It is an odd detail, because I also have an EB 8, large font with silver plating underneath, and it looks like the table has been hand finished with sand paper, just like a usa Florida...whatever an EB on a vi is a very nice tenor sound to my ear.

    As someone who is very interested in saxophones but who has very little experience with playing on vintage ones in particular, I want to ask you a quesiton as you seem to be very knowledgeable on this subject. I'm attracted to mid range and late model mark vi's because they seem way more affordable and like a feasible purchase option for me. But, being aware of the mythos of the mark vi, I'm wondering if you honestly believe that there is a sonic difference between the earlier ones (costing 8-9k) and the later ones (ones priced 5-6k on the low side)?? Perhaps even more importantly - in your opinion, is a late mark vi still a "good horn" as far as playing characteristics go?? I appreciate your videos and your response :) - A sax fan

      Shalom Marin, I just read your response 12/31/23 to user-cq6fl2yx2r. It was humorous in a deceptively dignified way, and served up in a deliciously and deservedly sardonic and sarcastic manner. I only hope he read it and understood it the way you meant it to be understood. I think your "sound" particularly in the lower register is very lush and rich, and your technique ain't bad either. Playing something extemporaneously, not having written or rehearsed it previously is not something everyone can do, but you make it look easy.

    I've got a 10* USA I bought new iin the 90s. I play a 3.5 or 4 on it. It does everything you want it to. Ppp subtones to fff altissimo. I don't know why players bother with smaller tip openings. Once your reed is broken in or you use a plasticover (Yeah, yeah) your embouchure will adapt before you know it and the decible volume on a gig with shit foldback and lots of amplified instuments and drums around you, is a huge advantage. I often hear players with a 'softer' set up, start playing flat because they've run out of purchase and resistence when they blow harder. I also use a fantastic but much brighter hard rubber Vandoren Jumbo Java T97 with a baffle, the biggest opening they made and sadly no longer in production. GO BIG, GANG!

    Yes, agreed agreeing agreed………your outlook is fact-based and important! It’s most unfortunate however, that when a member of the public pays-out and has a trial of one of your mouthpieces but returns it because it didn’t work for them, and you keep $100 for your “troubles”! This contradicts and earlier claim here that a main motivation of yours isn’t “being in business.”

    • @HornedTube
      @HornedTube 2 года назад

      I am not sure what you are referring to, but for clarity I do not (yet) make mouthpieces, so any mouthpieces I do sell are usualy vintage, not "mine". Secondly, I do not offer mouthpiece trials for the general public nor do I have a set fee of $100 for "troubles". Perhaps you are confusing me with someone else, but if you DO have some specific issue to discuss or complain about I suggest you contact the shop which would be a more appropriate venue for that topic. Besides that, pretty much everyone has a business or some kind of livelihood which does not disqualify them from weighing in on related topics. There is no logical basis to claim that someone being in the vintage horn business means commenting positively on vintage horns directly beneifts them therefore they are biased. If I comment positive only vintage Selmers its plenty likely no one cares or if they do they can buy them from someone else or worse, they could buy a CONN!!! OH no!!!!!
