Common Questions About the Selmer SAS711B
How does the SAS711B differ from the standard SAS711?
The SAS711B is the black-nickel version of the Selmer SAS711 professional Eb alto saxophone. It is specified with silver-plated keys and neck, giving it a different finish package from the standard SAS711.
