I'm looking to try a Berg Larsen, mainly because I have been so curious about them for so many years, but have actually never played one. I'm not looking for a new piece - I've got what I like and need. I think my curiosity comes from the fact that almost ever player I've heard on a Berg gets this solid, centered core that I find appealing. They can be bright, but I've heard so many players play them and also sound big, warm, and lush, but that solid core always seems to be there. So I have a few questions for you Berg experts:
Are newer or current production Bergs OK, or are the vintage ones better? Would I be better off trying a newer Berg copy? The Saxquest Hoss comes to mind as an example.
Are the bronze models a newer thing, or did they always make them in bronze?
Do the "2" chambers only come in a drop chamber, or did they ever make them with bullets chambers?
Thanks!
