It says "Seller donates to forum funds" on the thread. Does that automatically recognise the 5% or do I need to write it? Wasn't sure.
 
Put the camera up for sale and get yourself a nice easy starter sax! Hours and hours of fun and frustration! There are plenty for sale in the USA and some great makes as well..!
 
The upside down m/pc is the classic geezer who bought it at a boot fair and is trying to flog it on ebay thing..
.. clearly a gent of the quality and discernment of Prf J is employing subtle irony here...:)
 
Right.....I had better buy another mouthpiece as this one just doesn't allow me to bend a note!

Price drop to £375....it's immaculate. A lovely player.

I really like the Martin alto, but my wife has given me the choice between another saxophone, or a original 63 Hofner 500/1 bass, it really is a tough choice.

Get the bass
1:- it`ll only go up in value 2:- The bass is solid in your repertoire and the sax mybe a flash in the pan 3:- they`re harder to come by than Martin Altos at the right price
 
This isn`t to squit on Prof's sale m in fact I`m amazed that Martin is still here but those basses are like pre-CBS strats, original Gibson 335s etc , you only usually get one chance to own one

If only ProfJames had put the Martin up for sale before the wife bought me my birthday present I would of probably gone for the Martin over the Yanagisawa, and I never think of resale value when I buy an instrument, I buy them for the enjoyment they bring, I don't sell instruments for a living, nor do I work in a music shop, I do however own a couple of Gibson 335's and 355's, and pre CBS Fenders - my first guitar was a pre CBS Fender Strat
