TKS for a very learned and appropo "digression/dissertation", Terry. Yes the left L F plateaux is perhaps Sel's major accomplishment. Its been copied by many, including the Bundys and Vitos, so the "kids" dont know what pain we had back then. Yes, I've thot long and hard about "cashing in" my sax chips, but as long as the BW lets me buy, like my recently acquired Selmer [only a USA, dern it] Omega Bb cl, I'm content to keep, and one kid[maybe 2 more] have in effect, dont sell, I/we want them. I also borrowed [they wont sell either] once a Sel 6 Bari, and a Conn [16 {12?}] bari for pit work, both fine horns. A friend has an OLD King [their best then] alto which he "knows" and loves. GBK, you may need to "rein us in", rite? This is, a WW, but maybe not brass, BB ! Don
Thanx, Mark, Don
