Description

Selmer K-Modifed 25X S/N 25841  trumpet from around 1962 I’ve been told the ‘X’ stands for Exceptional.  This horn lives up to this description. Never Refinished, minor  Dent repair, Superb Valve Action, An excellent jazz horn, with a smoky sound, nimble response and dead-on intonation. Valves are fast have plenty of compression. There are no signs or trauma, damage or alterations. Just  a little lacquer missing. This horn is a stunning player as well as a collectors item! The extensive engraving is sharp and clear and BEAUTIFUL.  Designed by Keith Ecker for Selmer (Is how the K-Mod gets its name) Many great players have used K-Mods over the years and a lot still do. Some players believe it is an excellent alternative to the classic Martin Committee with it’s own characteristic jazz sound, and others point out that it is similar in sound and response to the more modern but now discontinued Selmer Chorus 80J. Get this 62 year old ‘BADBOY’ for half the price of a Chorus 80J!  Reeves Precision Valve Alignment performed September 20221
