Re: Raised C/G tone-hole on the Selmer Muse

If you really meant the C/G tone hole i.e. top tone hole on the lower section, I couldn't find a photo that shows it clearly.

If you meant the D/A tone hole i.e. tone hole under the third finger of the left hand, the photos of the Muse show a regular tone hole there.
The Signature has a slightly raised tone hole there (and others too, maybe even all of them). I don't remember when they started making it but it was 80s or 90s, and I guess it always had the raised tone holes but not sure.

The Muse release photos show a raised C#/G# tone hole if that's what you meant. Other Selmer models have that too (e.g. Privilege).

If they copied anyone with this feature specifically it was probably about 30 years ago.
