The Selmer Series III baritones are finally moving from the realm of the mythical to apparent reality, with shipping supposed to commence in October.
I've written a couple of blog posts about these mysterious instruments over the past few weeks, which quoted Dave Kessler from Kessler & Sons Music in Las Vegas. Today I had Dave Kessler do a guest column on the horn for my blog. Included are some photos of the design features, that make the Series III unique.
It sounds very intriguing, but the price tag (just under 10K) seems a bit steep. How many bari players do you know that could afford it on a musicians salary? I can't think of too many.
