      It’s got to be a personal decision. I would feel ok buying online as long as I had played the exact same model already, then you know you like it and if it’s got a repair or 2 it’s not a big deal cause you can get it fixed. If you have a music store where you can try out a few that would be best… unless of course someone is so new that they haven’t even played a sax yet then I would recommend a few of the well-known brands.

        Aye, it’s a Selmer and I’d be buying new so I wouldn’t be worrying about repairs etc.

        So you would definitely recommend having a go on one before buying one?

          A Selmer, yes of course. They didn’t make a bad one yet. I own 2 Selmers, a Mark 6 and a 7. I prefer the 6. What model is it you’re looking at?
