As an example, I'm doing some Yanagisawa saxophone research. D," the chart is wrong.Īlso note that sometimes manufacturers release one pitch of a certain horn earlier than other pitches. In the case of SML, if you have a horn that has, "Gold Medal" stamped on the bell and the serial number chart I wrote says it's a "Rev. This can be confusing when the maker doesn't bother giving a name to the model horn you have, like SML. As an easy example, if you look at a serial number chart and it says the serial number is correct for a Selmer Mark VI, but the horn is stamped something completely different, like, "Selmer New York," then you don't have a Mark VI. Serial number charts are a really bad way of determining what model horn you have.


I wanted to add this because I keep forgetting to mention this and I get a lot of e-mails about it. I've created a very comprehensive chart with a lot of info at.
