Instruments Formerly Owned By a Represented RAF Musician (1585-1588) Previously owned for much of their life by former RAF musician and well respected traditional Jazz musician David Rossiter, these instruments have been both well travelled and well cared for during their lifetime right up until 2019 when he retired from playing. The Vendor has written a short history of these musical instruments below The Mk 6 Soprano and case was purchased new in the London branch of Selmers in 1962 and was one of three destined for Australia. Tubby Hays apparently bought the last one a week earlier and I thought “well, if it’s good enough for him it’ll do for me”. A pitch perfect and superb instrument. During my 12-year service in the R.A.F. this instrument travelled all over the world with me playing in many groups.

In 1968 I purchased the Mk 6 Alto and case privately in Swindon after completing my service “career” and followed up my interest in New Orleans Music in the Swindon and Oxford areas, culminating in performances in the Old-Style Jazz Festivals in Holland in the 70’s and 80‘.

The Mk 6 tenor and case was purchased from America in the late 90’s and completed the Selmer Sax family but required a bit of attention on the original case. Adding a bit of depth to the proceedings on the odd occasion. (Much to the disgust of some of the die-hards in attendance)!!

The 10G clarinet was the last replacement made and although it may look like a bit of an ‘outsider’ amongst the others is a top notch Selmer Instrument and performs up to the expected standard.

All the instruments have been serviced regularly and play pitch perfect from high to low.

Carrying all these instruments to and from venues in separate cases was proving both a bit painful and tiring so, in 2002, decided to design and fit out a custom case to take them all.

This is what you see before you. I should stress that I know they fit the listed instruments properly but can’t guarantee they will fit yours. If in doubt, sell yours and buy ALL these instruments - you will not be disappointed. Doing so, you will also own this Combi-Case, a 4piece instrument stand, a tuner and detachable trolly FREE OF CHARGE and own a superb and well serviced set of instruments. The case will take everything you require as a “reedperson”.

Where possible significant damage is mentioned, but this does not include all faults and imperfections.
