Classic Mk. VI era type horn with:
a) no high F# (and, obviously, no high G);
b) palm keys that are still flat like the VI, but elevated in some way to make them a little easier to play;
c) a left hand pinky table that is still narrow like that of the VI but slightly convex and easier to use; and
d) fixed neck design
Seems pointless to me to make a Reference soprano that is merely a Serie III with a few slight tweaks. The Mark VI is not as hard to play nor as out-of-tune as its detractors would have one believe, and a modernized version of it would be a great addition to Selmer's line.
