My top five favorite Selmer Baritones:
1. Selmer Super Action 80 Serie II Low A
2. Selmer Mark VI Low A
3. Selmer Super Action 80 Low B flat
4. Selmer Mark VI Low B flat
5. Selmer (Super) Balanced Action Low B flat (I've never played a low a)
Generally speaking Selmer has continued to refine their Bari's over the years. The Super Action 80 Serie II horns are really fine horns. Some people like their VI's better. I think they're all good. Some people will take issue with me liking the Low A's so much but it really comes down to practicality for me. I play music that sometimes requires a Low A so even though there are certain things I prefer about low B flat horns (such as the weight) I generally prefer Low A's.
