Looking at an Ida Mari Grassi tenor for sale. Truth is I know litle about these saxes but read someone reccomending the model 2000 as being great. Well this is not one of those but a Standard model from 1976. Engraving says Made in Italy, so it's not a later Chinese one. It has the ring style bell to body brace but no jade rollers, high F# or special adjustment screws for the F/F# keys. It's nickel silver in very good condition and the price is 480 pounds. Will someone knowledgeble about these...like @DaveUK perhaps....tell me if that is a good deal, if the horn is any good compared to my Martin Comm III tenor, or compared to tenors in general (what are these like to play....ergos and sound)?
Thanks for the help.
