Re: Selmer Series 10 Enhanced Boehm

The 10G was a different model clarinet being produced alongside the Series 9/9*, 10 and 10S, all of those having overlaps in production with the introduction of each successive model.

The serial numbers were sequential for all their clarinets rather than being model specific, so you can have a 10G stamped Z5xx1 and then a Series 9, 9* or 10 stamped Z5xx2.

The Series 10 (like the RI, BT, 55, CT, Series 9/9* and 10S) was available with all the keywork options from N.1 (standard 17 key 6 ring keywork) to N.8 full Boehm (20 keys 7 rings) and also Marchi and Mazzeo systems, whereas the 10G was mainly available with the standard N.1 keywork, although Selmer may have made the odd 10G with optional keywork if it was a special order.
