    Try a mid 50's vintage King Zephyr. Very bold sound!

        depends if you want/need a low A. if you dont, conn 12m is concidered to be the "best" bari, id be playing one right now if it wasnt $1000 out of my price range and had some serious tuning issues on low and middle E due to a HARD knock it took, sounded GREAT. For low A bari's. try a Yamaha 62
