 Re: Selmer Sterling or something else ?

The Selmer Sterling isn't worth that much, I've had several and I've never paid over $150 in playing condition. It probably won't play that well, either.

Of the instruments you've listed, the E12F will give you a relatively modern instrument that plays and tunes very well when properly set up.

The E13 could be good, a good one will hold its own against an R13, depends on condition.

Same goes for the R13, not all R13's are good, some are dogs.

BC20 could be worth considering as long as the repairs don't cost too much. I've always liked the BC20. Never played an S1, so I can't comment on it.

The golden rule is play before you buy, or get someones whose judgement you trust to play..
