Frequently Asked Questions

The S-bow bore offers a more immediate and responsive feel, especially in the lower register, with improved projection and a slightly darker tonal quality.
The engraving is primarily aesthetic, but Selmer carefully engineered the design to avoid any negative impact on the horn’s resonance or intonation.
While vintage horns have charm, the Signature offers modern ergonomics, improved intonation, and updated materials, making it a worthwhile investment for serious players.
