I was able to play one one of them and it has an awsome sound for both jazz and concert its very vercitile sp? I also tested it for intonation and i was very pleased to fine ALL 3 C#'S IN TUNE. Including the rest of the horn. The low B flats came out with out much more than a breath it was awsome. The dealer that let me play also let me compare it to the Selmer paris and I found them to be almost exactly the same for half the price. Overal what i can say is this instrument was very well made and is perfect for anyone looking for a step up model.
