I know this thread started out about the tonal consistency of the Superiors and morphed into several "discussions" regarding Uebel.
I've not played a Superior, just the Emperior. The tonal quality is incredible. I'm amazed at how in tune the horn is when I clip on my tuner. There are only a few notes which are plus/minus more than a few cents off, but I think that's a function of my embouchure than anything else. I'm still getting my chops back after many years absence.
The ease of which the horn plays is extraordinary. As a returning player, I had some issues especially in the upper registers. This horn plays up to altissimo effortlessly. (At this point I don't venture into altissimo... ha ha). This horn required a LOT more "oomph" than my Ridenour... bigger bore, I'm assuming.
When I returned to playing, I borrowed a Selmer USA and wrestled with for a month or two. Terrible horn, IMO. I then did a LOT of research, with a lot of help from some of you folks on here (again, thanks), and decided to purchase a Ridenour low Eb. GREAT horn for the $$$. After a couple of months, I decided I wanted a low C.... Ridenour didn't have any available, so from a suggestion here, I checked out Uebel. Very happy I did.
I guess my analogy would be this. My Ridenour is like driving a Kia.... Kia makes some great cars for the $$. My Uebel is like driving a Mercedes. Solid, substantial, well made, sturdy, "drives" like a dream.
My bottom line, if the Superiors are anything like the Emperiors.... I'd strongly recommend a test drive.
