Conn 12M Bari Sax

I don't really know too much about them but I own one and was wondering what it was worth. It has several dents, some action that needs to be adjusted, and some laquer wear but is not relaquered. I believe it's from 1966 and it plays great. I got it for $1200. Was that a deal??

    I happen to be finishing up on a 1968 12M I got from SaxQuest on an eBay sale. It was "as-is" and needed some work. I don't think the neck was original as it fit poorly, so I'm having it expanded. I'll have about $1000 and 10 hours into it when I'm done. So I'd say that $1200 without having to do major rework is a mighty fine deal. I'd say $1500 to $1800 is still a fair price for your horn. Way to go!
