@@rburganmusic Nice, I play on a custom 82zii and have for a while, I’ve been planning on really trying out some selmers, (I play both classical and jazz) to compare them. How do you like the supreme as apposed to the II, and if you’ve tried any other selmers or Yamahas, feel free to compare those, or tell me what you prefer lol
@@keananok I actually have a whole other video that really dives into the difference between the Series II and the Supreme, but long story short I love the Supreme. My Series II is from 1996 so it's a huge jump forward for me in terms of tone and intonation. I like the Yamaha Custom series, they put out some great saxes! I just prefer the tone of the Selmer saxes, and I think the Supreme is extremely sensitive and flexible in terms of tone, while somehow not sacrificing the core of its sound. At least it is more so than my II. If I had to pick something other than Selmer, it'd be the Yamaha Custom EXII with the V1 neck.
@@rburganmusic Wow. Thanks for this. I know the supreme is expensive, but I’ll have to think more into this. From your description I’d think I’d like the supreme a lot. I know a lot of pretty virtuosic players are switching to them in both jazz and classical. I really like the V1 neck as well, my custom z came with one but I also tried a G1.
@@keananok I need to correct myself here. I'm using the Supreme in this video. When I replied earlier I thought I had recorded this video on my Series II but now I just double checked and this is indeed the Supreme.
What horn do you play on, ad assume the mp is a concept based on looks
You are correct, this mouthpiece is a concept. The saxophone in this video is a Selmer Series II, but I just recently switched to the Selmer Supreme.
