The selmers were uncomfortable for me. Besides, I liked the way the Yamaha Custom sounded more.
Btw, is it true that the Mark VI's were made from spent bullet shells from the war? I thought it was just a legend, but I met a kid who swears by it.

Hmm.. wow.. Ive never heard that before!
I have an aquantance that recently bought one (he has only been playing for 6 months and is better than all our freshmen.. O.O) so Ill ask him!
You really like the yamaha? i find them hard to deal with... I love it to death because its my Antonio... BUT... i find the keys jam and theres one spot that if you play too much- spit will leak onto your fingers and theres no way to dry it cuz you cant reach it.. pain in the *booop*

if you are an alto player and just beginning, or intermediate-ish, i recommend getting a Yamaha, but not one that's too good, cuz you might get bored with it. if you have a school instrument, you can use one of those, too.

Student saxs also have generally pretty thin walls. They're much less demanding on someone who's starting out.
