Selmer Axos Saxophone
Selmer Excellence at Your Fingertips
Henri Selmer Paris is a legendary brand in the saxophone world, synonymous with quality and innovation. With the Axos range, launched in 2015, Selmer has taken on the challenge of offering professional instruments accessible to a wider audience, without compromising the acoustic DNA and expertise for which it is renowned.
Made in France
One of the major strengths of Axos saxophones is their manufacturing. They are entirely designed and produced in the Henri Selmer Paris factory in Mantes-la-Ville, France, where all of the brand's models have been manufactured since 1922. This guarantees scrupulous adherence to the quality standards and artisanal processes that characterize high-end Selmer instruments. The Axos saxophones benefit from the same care given to the metals and bore treatment as the professional models, ensuring a typical Selmer sound identity, a delicate balance between harmonic richness and fullness of sound.
Features and Innovations
Axos saxophones are the result of a successful combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern industrial processes. They are distinguished by:
- Great homogeneity and sonic amplitude: The Axos is renowned for its rich timbre and easy response, making it suitable for a wide range of musical styles, from classical to jazz.
- Optimized playing comfort: The keywork is designed to provide a comfortable grip and excellent mechanical reliability. Fingers rest naturally on the soft and comfortable keywork.
- Quality pads: They are equipped with leather pads with metal resonators, contributing to excellent sound projection.
- Attractive aesthetics: The Axos saxophones feature a specific varnish shade, often darker, and an exclusive floral engraving, inspired by the brand's traditional motifs. The neck key is also stamped with Selmer's iconic "S."
- Accessories included: Instruments typically come with a Henri Selmer Paris S80 C* mouthpiece, a ligature, a mouthpiece cap, a maintenance kit, and a specially designed Axos case, often with backpack straps.
Since their launch, the Axos has undergone several developments, notably with the arrival of the "second generation," which refined certain aesthetic and sonic characteristics. The range has also expanded to include tenor saxophones, in addition to altos.
An instrument for all musicians
Since their introduction, Axos saxophones have been adopted by many musicians, whether students, discerning amateurs, or even professionals. Their value for money makes them an attractive choice for those wishing to acquire a Selmer-branded saxophone without the budget of more prestigious models such as the Super Action 80 Series II, Series III, or Supreme.
In short, the Selmer Axos saxophone embodies the brand's desire to make its expertise and legendary sound accessible to as many people as possible, offering a reliable, comfortable instrument with a warm timbre.
