Key Features and Characteristics
- Sound: Known for a lush, resonant, and fat tone with a well-balanced timbre and immense power when set up correctly. This timbral flexibility allows it to fit into many musical environments, from classical to jazz.
- Craftsmanship: Exhibits high-quality French design, build, and artisan craftsmanship.
- Ergonomics: Features fast keywork and a relatively modern key layout compared to earlier vintage horns, with right-hand bell keys. The keywork is generally regarded as slick and comfortable when properly adjusted.
- Resonators: Often came with original screw-in, reusable metal resonators, or sometimes flat metal resonators, which help maximize the tone.
- Finish: Commonly found in lacquer finish, with some examples exhibiting a distinctive "sparkle" lacquer effect.
- Value: Despite its high quality and performance, it is often significantly less expensive than a comparable vintage Selmer Mark VI, making it a great value for collectors and players.
Reputation
The Super Dynaction has a strong reputation among informed players and technicians. It is highly regarded as an excellent all-around saxophone that offers a professional playing experience without the premium price tag of more famous brands. Many owners praise its build quality, intonation, and great tone, often comparing it favorably to other top French-made saxophones of the era.
