Re: YCL-SEV vs YCL-CSG

I agree with much of the above post. I regularly play on both, though my personal horns are a set of CSG in Hamilton plate.

In short the SEV seems a bit brighter in sound to me, and yes closer to a typical Buffet in feel than the CSG.

The CSG is warmer. The only pitch issue is that the low F and E tend slightly lower than the SEV.

Also keep in mind if you are (or could be in the future) one who wants the freedom to experiment with a MULTITUDE of barrels, the SEV has the usual barrel length we all know an love. However, the CSG is typically 10mm shorter which will severly limit your choices of barrels to custom made third party models.
