Advice needed: Selmer Super Action 80 ...

I hope we just got a great deal on a great alto saxophone.

Selmer Paris Super Action 80 Series II Model 52, black finish, For under $3,000.

It is advertised as "mint" with about 15 hours of playing time. The guy bought it new and switched to tenor.

I'm not a sax expert, I purchased this as an upgrade for my daughter, who plays alto in high school and plans to go on to play alto in college.

Please put my mind at ease that I purchased a great horn. One that will last! I was going to buy her a cannonball. Then I browsed around on this forum. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!

Have repairs on the AW and march with that. Or, have it put right and sell it to a new fall beginner, and buy a used YAS-23 here on this forum for $350 +/- and march with that.

Whatever you do, keep the Selmer off the marching field.
