Hi all. Very impressed by Stephen Howard`s review of the M2 alto. Has anyone else played one? I would be grateful for all reports because of my concern over consistency. E.g. over the years I have played several Selmer 6`s and owned two- and didn`t think much of any of them! I know there are many who maintain that if you don`t play a Selmer, then maybe you`re not really a player! But I read a great deal about the inconsistencies of Selmers. It seems that you can`t depend on them being NECESSARILY the best!
So why am I going on like this? I suppose that I`m wondering if ALL M2`s are necessarily as good as the one Stephen examined. Perhaps some of you can tell me before I talk some poor dealer into ordering a sax that I then don`t think much of! Also there are two other related models: the M2 gold lacquer and the new `Earth` bare brass version. Has anyone played these and got something to say to the rest of us? I really would like to hear from you as I`m still wondering what to buy.
