Gladiator versus Silver King

Author: Bill_D

I play for my own pleasure. I'm trying to decide between the Gladiator and Silver King. I understand that the Silver King is professional level, and the Gladiator is on the opposite end. The price difference between the two that I'm considering is about 3.5.

I like the "feel" of quality in my finger tips when I play. I have a Buffet R13 that meets this criteria.

My questions: Is there a noticeable difference in timber and key action between the Gladiator and Silver King? Anything else to help me decide?

I considered a two piece Silva-Bet, but ruled it out since not as many were made, and if I ever need parts it would be more difficult to get them.
