Hi Graham,
Thanks for your opinion, It is quite a few years ago since I last played a 926 I am hoping I don't remember it too fondly for my own good but I do seem to recall it had lovely tone. (of course it was a wooden version and I have a great fondness for all things wooden).
Appreciate the advice on mce's as I was already wondering what to do about that as it has a la fleur mpc on at the moment. I see some good looking ones around on Ebay right now, including Vandoren B44, B45, Selmer C85 120, Buffet, Riffault, Dave Hite (missed that one).
Where can I get hold of Ed Pillinger bye the bye ? (and what does he typically charge for a 926 mpc).
Lastly, I have not yet seen the instrument, I am buying at a distance but have seen a photo of it, it looks at least to be in one piece but I cannot verify that all the parts match or the general condition so I know I am taking a big risk on it. Still, at 60 pounds (well thats' less than 100 !!) I figure it's worth that risk.
He-he, I hope I'm not left with egg on my face after that last comment but even if it costs between 100-150 pounds to restore it, it will still be a cheap instrument.
Thanks again
Mike
