Hello Ian,

I have a Marigaux Strasser of about vintage 1975 - I think the serial number of mine is 6767, but I will check once I get home this evening.

Yours seem to be full professional models and if they are in good playing condition are worth a good deal on the second-hand market. The quality of wood of these older instruments is amazing - much finer-grained than can be obtained today.

If you intend to sell them you should probably work through a dealer in Germany, where the fully-automatic octave model is most popular.

My Strasser-Marigaux is not a German fully-automatic system like yours, but a dual thumbplate/conservatoire semi-automatic system and it doesn't have the low B-C connection or the F roller. However, the keywork looks identical in style to yours.

And Chris - it weighs less than my Loree c+3 with all the bells and whistles, though the difference is minor. I always thought that weight differences are more to do with the bore than the amount of keywork, no? Is the difference the 1-2-3 mechanism? that certainly adds complexity.

J.
