In 2025, Selmer celebrates 140 years of history with a limited edition that not only offers high-end instruments but also serves as a tribute to generations of musicians who have left their mark on music with a Selmer in their hands.

The Testimony of David Salleras
As part of this celebration, we are proud to feature the testimony of  Selmer Artist David Salleras, a renowned saxophonist and musician, who has been a staunch advocate for Selmer instruments throughout his career. His experience and perspective on what it means to play an instrument from this brand are a testament to the quality and legacy that Selmer brings to music.

"Since I began my career, I’ve always trusted Selmer instruments for their ability to deliver a warm, rich sound full of nuance. In my personal experience, there is nothing like the feeling of playing a Selmer saxophone: the quick response, the quality of craftsmanship, and the adaptability of these instruments have allowed me to express myself in a unique way. This 140th anniversary of Selmer reminds me of the importance of preserving that tradition, and to be able to share this moment with musicians around the world is truly an honor. For me, Selmer is not just an instrument, it's a companion in every concert and every musical challenge.

Playing the Supreme Limited Edition saxophone has been a remarkable experience, especially considering that I’m accustomed to playing one of the earlier editions of the Supreme. The evolution in this new model is clear and evident, both in its feel and timbre. From an organological perspective, the instrument feels lighter and more ergonomic, which translates into greater comfort during long playing sessions. The overall sensation is that of a very balanced saxophone, with a quick response and improved ergonomics, making it easier to handle in any situation.

In terms of sound, the new Supreme stands out with a brighter and richer tone. The higher notes are more defined, with an impressive projection that gives the feeling of greater presence in any performance. Despite this brightness, the saxophone maintains a robust core sound, allowing for a full, balanced tonal range, from the lower registers to the most demanding high notes.

The limited edition model is also more versatile in terms of setup. Its quick, harmonic response allows it to work with slightly harder reeds or more resistant mouthpieces, which makes it adaptable to different styles and musician needs. It’s an instrument that invites experimentation and promises great sonic richness with time and the right work.

In summary, the Supreme Limited Edition saxophone is a true gem, combining Selmer’s tradition with innovations that elevate the quality and experience of the musician. Without a doubt, it is an instrument designed for those who seek perfection in every detail."
