[QUOTE="Guenne, post: 110546, member: 3052"] Hi, I am playing a Yanagisawa horn. As a backup tenor, I have the chance to by a "Schagerl" European Customized sax. Schagerl is a store located about 50km from a home, they are making very good trumpets and trombones (here in Austria :-)) The saxes, though there has been lots of input from players, are made, ok, guess where :-) They have al line called "Modell 66", and a "special line", where only the body and keys are made in Taiwan, the rest is done here in Austria. These instruments sell for about €800,- more. I got a laquered one and a Vintage model. They both have high F# (though you get them without). I recorded a short soundfile with the 2 and compared it to my Yani with a solid silver neck, straight to my Olympus recorder. Unfortunately, my room is not very good sounding, but at least it is dry (acoustically :-)) Friday I will have to return one of the Schagerls. Although there is a preference for one of them, I'd ask for your cemments on this. Thank you very much. Laquered: [URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fuiop0dh-ts[/URL] Unlaquered, "Vintage": [URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLynoy72_q8[/URL] Yani 992, Solid Silver Neck [URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n29-aqFHhoo[/URL] MPC is a Ed Pillinger LA 7*, Rigotti 3med reeds.
