Ben, I love my M VI, and have made recent comparison with the "best" Leblanc [model 100?] and its Vito counterpart, which were in competition back in the 50-70's. Its still my best/easiest sax to play well on. I found mine at a "low price" and wouldn't part with it for several times that. A [true] sax PRO offered me a lot, but M6's trading prices are still on the rise!! An expert, knowledgable saxplayer/repairman, when I took him a friend's Super Action model, [the M6's early {RARE} predecessor, worth many TH Bucks !!!], for check-up and advice, suggested exploring value with JoeSax [in NYC?] and with Wichita Band, where it is now awaiting a well-to-do foreign buyer. There are quite a few sax traders on the web, if you ask, have the serial # available, and be prepared to discuss condition, partic, that of the "original laquer" . Be careful, it is valuable. Don
Thanx, Mark, Don
