Selmer Supreme Solid Silver and Gold Plated Alto Saxophone Neck Review

Today, I have a review and comparison of the new Selmer Paris Supreme alto saxophone necks in solid silver and gold plate! These necks are compared alongside my usual Selmer Series III setup. I talk about intonation, tone quality, and build quality improvements. Overall, I found that the new necks offer a slightly more focused and darker sound compared to the Series III and, most importantly, pull up some of the flatness of the lower register. Plating does not seem to make a significant difference in terms of playability, although the solid silver neck seemed to play with a little more vibrancy communicated to the player.

These Supreme alto necks were provided on trial by Meridian Winds, many thanks for making this review possible!
