Alan,
You are not alone. I have a Bundy 3 but have gone up one step to older Selmer C* MPs. I actually four; one was refaced by Ramon Wodkowsky, two by David McClure that have been give the S2 facing (a Matson reface) that Michael Lowenstern recommends, and finally a virgin C* that plays very well.
I use Legere' reeds exclusively. Anywhere from a 2 to 3 from a collection of Classic, Tenor studio Cut, and European Cut reeds of various periods. I have a Selmer Model 65 and a very fine Low C bass from Meridian Winds (Asian-made) which is played only when I need the lower notes.
I have all sorts of ligatures to try but seem to always come back to a Harrison and VD Optimum.
Best,
HRL
