Joe,

Vito is by LeBlanc, and Bundy/Buescher are both by Selmer. These
ARE big four manufacturers...

By the way, when trying out instruments, you really need to try
out MORE than one of each brand, as the final regulation on each
instrument is very quick (to make it cost effective,) and many
instruments of the beginner's level do come out of the factory
with leaky keys and pads, due to not enough human-touch time.
Heck, even professional instruments come from the factory with
leaky pads, as most of us have seen.
