Good point, if you follow the history of such mergers.
The Buescher line of saxophones became the Selmer Bundy horns.
The tendency is to make instruments for the largest demographic segment with the least amount of build cost.
Sorry kiddies, that does NOT include horns that have lots of hand-tooling and final adjustments.
This sort of thing lead to the resurgence of hand-crafted flutes, back in the 1980's. You pay for quality, and it's worthwhile.
