Selmer SBA Vs. Conn 6m Vs. Selmer model 26

i am looking for an upgrade alto and have narrowed my choices down to these three, i can afford them all, i was just wondering about different views in comparison, currently i think the SBA is on top, fairly sure actually, but i just wanna know what you all think.

the SBA is great, the lacquer is more intact than on my 275!!! and its only 1800!!

bargain.

the 6m is great, it is as good as a 26m i recently played, is a good relacquer,


the model 26 i havent played recently, original lacquer, fair quality, quite early

its an obvious choice, if you can get a $1,800 sba take it ,and anyway it is a better horn than the other 2 and will have more value and if you don't like it you can sell or trade it for pretty much anything


just make sure its a super balanced action and not a regular balanced action -- in that case I would say something totally different
