The keywork was entirely redesigned. The low B and Bb keys were moved to the right side of the bell, allowing for easier operation. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bulletBlock\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bulletTexte\"\u003eThe origin of the name “Balanced Action” lies in its balanced keywork and distribution of weight. Coleman Hawkins chose to play on this model at the end of the Thirties. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bulletBlock\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bulletTexte\"\u003eIn fact, with this saxophone, there is a return to the initial spirit of the esthetics of the Selmer sound: the bore is bigger and the bell is a larger diameter. This improvement thus made it possible for Selmer to become a real challenger next to the American saxophones of the time. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bulletBlock\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bulletTexte\"\u003eIn its design, the “Balanced Action” Tenor was characterized by distinct low B and Bb guards, and spatula groups with a newer, more ergonomic form (the left-hand little finger and right-hand little finger). \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bulletBlock\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bulletTexte\"\u003eThe “Balanced Action” came in two versions, either with a long or short bell. The long bell was more accurate, but more demanding in terms of blowing. The short bell was preferred for its greater blowing ease, but on the other hand, played the low registers slightly too high. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bulletBlock\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bulletTexte\"\u003eAn important development in extending the range of the instrument was the addition of a high F# option, offered here for the first time.
