I have read the various reviews on SOTW of the horns, saying that they are mainly for "collectors", but I want a back up alto, seeing as I let go of my Bundy for a friend who couldn't afford the rent of a sax.
I guess what I am going at is this:
What would be fair price to pay for this horn? The seller has offered to repair the sax at the tech of my choice, I just want to make sure that it would be worth the time (and not a waste of his money).
PS: By players horn, I mean that it has seen constant use throughout it's life, but has also recieved the necessary repairs, etc. without being skimped on by the owner. He is the ORIGINAL owner, and has kept all the documentation of the horn. Selling it because he has horrible arthritis in his hands, and wants to see the horn get some use, as it should. Comes three mouthpieces, I believe one of them is the original, but he can't remember. The other two are a selmer metal classic in a D facing, and a long shank soloist (vintage). The mouthpieces are in pretty good shape, an dI expect them to be worth more than the horn, but he is throwing them in gratis. Thanks for the help!
