B&S 1000 vs B&S2001 Tenors

Randall's sleuthing is pretty right on! I A-B ed the 1000 against the 2001 four years ago and bought the 2001in the sandblast finish. I would place the 1000 as intermediate where the 2001 is low end pro?

Also in the mix was a JK black nickel horn wich I thought was better mechanically then the 2001 and maybe? sounded a little better, but did not justify the price difference. I loved the horn and it is a great buy, but I have just sold it having purchased the Shadow to which nothing yet has come close.
