 Re: No love for Selmer?

Do Selmers get such a negative rep because of the entry-level Selmer USA horns that many of us grew up on in the 1970s-1980s? When I was in elementary band in late 1970s, it was either Selmer or Buffet that local stores offered to us. Most kids (or rather, their parents paying for their horn) opted for Selmers.

I dunno, I have always opted for cheaper horns (because I am cheap) so Selmers have been fine for me. In terms of 'best' instruments I have, my Leblanc bass is probably the best, followed my my Buffet soprano, but I find I usually grab my Selmer alto and soprano the most often when I want to spontaneously bang out a couple tunes while I wait for the wife doing stuff, maybe because those were my first?
