Henri SELMER Paris unveils, with its new brand SeleS, a never before seen saxophone called Axos.
This new instrument Axos is made in our factory located in Mantes-la-Ville, France, in the same factory as all other models since 1922. As all our top-of-the-range instruments, this model continues the tradition of craftsmanship manufacturing integrating new industrial techniques.
Aiming to make quality instruments available to a greater number of musicians, Axos provides
playing comfort with its specially adapted keywork as well as great mechanical
reliability.
This new saxophone Axos brings with it the heritage of over a century
of history and technical knowledge from Henri SELMER Paris, the world leader in saxophone
design and production.
Axos is made with the same quality metals as the other Henri SELMER Paris saxophones.The way in which the strategic part of the saxophone, the bore, is treated in our metal workshops is as rigorous as the treatment of the professional models. This guarantees that the Henri SELMER Paris sound identity is found as well on the Axos, a delicate balance between rich harmonics and roundness of sound.
A case specially designed for the Axos saxophone, with backpack straps.
SeleS is a new brand created by Henri SELMER Paris respecting the values held by the SELMER family since the creation of the company in 1885.
John HELLIWELLSupertramp
“ Axos puts out what I put into it! It gets a very good and powerful sound. It takes whatever you can give it. It’s got a good fat sound!”
Claude DELANGLE• International soloist • Professor at the Paris Conservatoire
“ Axos has totally won me over! It is easy to play in the low register and has an especially full and round sound in the middle register. All this while keeping SELMER’s trademark: richness, sound and projection.”
