It's on ebay:

The bell-body brace looks like a Signet, but the poorly-photographed bell engraving pic looks like it has the Selmer wreath.
What model do you think this is? Considering his outrageous shipping fee, the horn is already getting up there in price.............does Selmer actually have SN lists for the USA product?
I've never seen sn lists for anything other than their French instruments.

We've been tinkering with the pads on one of these for four years now in our shop (and others) and have been unsuccessful at getting it just right (we've had a few near misses using several different materials). I've been really dieing to hear how this horn sounds, it really looks like a beauty but it has been more than a trying experience trying to get it going.

Best of luck to the winning bidder on this one!
