It seems overall, that the reverence for MK VIs stops at the door of the home of the Selmer baritone. Any particular reason for that?
I'll second guess here and say it doesn't rock out enough or at least project well as a tool for jazz soloing, at least relative to others out there. A classical style sound?
If that is the case, especially for let's say higher up serial #s, is it terminal?
I'd guess that the intonation and ergonomics/action is second to none (or at least equal to the best), so what can be done to make it a better speaking or "differently speaking" horn?
I've suddenly come across a possibility of a nice 1970 VI at what might be a good price (relaq_shiny, very good play condition, not beat up, no major dents, OK wooden case). BTW, what is a good price for such an object?
