Having the first of the "Selmer Super Saxes" aka SSS. The New largebore, ca. 1930. I can see why Zoot used this horn, there is just something about these horns, I can't figure it out but it is as if they do a lot of response by "themselves" Go figure, I lvoe the sub tones and finger positions (BUT it does take some time to get used to the left pinky group the C#,B & Bb. The secret is to "clamp" your finger on th key, harder on the one you want to play, softer on the ones that go with the note your playing. Hope this can help some poor soul. BB NY
