A classic from Selmer’s celebrated Soloist series, the Selmer Paris Soloist C* “Long Shank” tenor mouthpiece delivers the refined tonal clarity and balance that made this model a staple for professional players from the 1960s onward. The long-shank design offers a slightly darker, more resonant tone than its short-shank predecessor, with excellent pitch stability and projection across the instrument’s range.

With its C facing, this mouthpiece provides focused control and smooth response, ideal for players seeking a centered tone with moderate resistance—perfect for jazz, concert band, or studio work. The tonal character is warm, lyrical, and flexible, capable of both intimate expressiveness and full-bodied projection.

This example is in good vintage condition (3/5), showing moderate cosmetic wear consistent with regular use but remaining fully functional and structurally sound. The rails, table, and chamber geometry appear original, retaining the classic Selmer tonal profile that continues to define professional alto and tenor setups worldwide.
