[uglydavegray]

Hi all, i am wanting to learn the sax and i have heard about a coesnon alto sax. I hear theya re old and beautifull. I am also a collector of beautifull old things. can anyone tell me a bit about the couesnon alto, what rprice range i should be looking at and what to look for in buying one that works. I am a beginner and dont want to pay to much or buy a lemon. any advice would be greatly appreciated.
