Up for sale is a completely original, untouched vintage Henri Selmer Paris "Soloist" C** hard rubber (ebonite) mouthpiece for Tenor Saxophone.Based on the iconic oval stamped scroll wreath logo and shank design, this piece dates directly back to the golden era of the mid-1950s to 1960s, famously paired with legendary Selmer Mark VI saxophones.

Condition Details:

100% Unrestored Canvas: The mouthpiece shows heavy, uniform dark brownish-yellow surface oxidation typical of genuine, mid-century vulcanized rubber.


The Authentic Shadow:

It features a dark black "shadow ring" on the body where the ligature historically sat, providing categorical proof that this item is an unmolested vintage specimen that has never been chemically altered or power-buffed.
Preserved Geometry: The original facing, flat table, thin side rails, and tip rail are entirely structurally sound and original. The stamped scroll logo remains perfectly visible and intact.Tip Opening: Stamped C** on the back of the shank (approx. 2.00 mm), offering a beautifully warm, centered, and stable response. 
Bonus Accessory Included:Comes paired with a vintage, French-made B.LTD (Bill Lewington Ltd.) silver-plated metal mouthpiece cap to keep the delicate tip and rails safely protected during transit and everyday storage.This is an exceptional, untouched find for vintage gear collectors, players, or refacers who want a guaranteed original Selmer Soloist setup. Ships quickly and securely packed.
