Hi Guys,
1... I have a Martin "The Martin" tenor (1955) that deserves a complete A1 overhaul & repad. I live near Birmingham so a technician on my doorstep would be a great advantage.
So, who do you recommend to do this work for me?
---------------------------------------------------------------
2... I also have a Buescher Aristocrat Series 1 tenor (1939) It has Snap-in Pads, Norton Springs etc & is in pristine condition, 99% lacquer, no dents or dings. About 2 years ago it was completely overhauled & repadded by Roger Price.
I'm thinking of selling this horn as I'm still not comfortable using the LH cluster keys.
Where is the best place to sell it & what ballpark price can I expect this instrument to sell at?
---------------------------------------------------------------
3... Or do I sell both saxes & buy something more modern, if yes, what make & model tenor would you recommend?
---------------------------------------------------------------
I look forward to your replies.
Regards,
Mike
