[Features and appeal]
The Selmer Serie II is a classic, long-selling model of soprano saxophone. It's a straight-type, one-piece neck model that has been in production for approximately 40 years.
In the soprano saxophone market, many manufacturers offer detachable necks on their higher-end models, leading to the misconception that "one-piece necks equal lower-end models." However, Selmer positions both one-piece and detachable neck models as variations of the same grade. The difference in construction and resulting manufacturing costs are simply reflected in the selling price; it does not mean that the instruments themselves are of different ranks.
The straight-type neckless design offers clear articulation and a distinct, resonant tone that extends smoothly. It's suitable for a wide range of genres, from classical music to wind band and ensemble performances.
