Also note that, as before, one company's student horn can easily be better than another company's professional model.ДЄnyhow, Bundy was probably the biggest name in student instruments until Yamaha came along.

It's also about 2x as much as the intermediate model, but if you're advanced enough to consider the pro model, you can play the two and tell that the 62 is really a better horn (FWIW, for me, the difference in quality wasn't worth the difference in price). As an example, the Yamaha baritone saxophones, the YBS-62 pro and the YBS-52 intermediate horns, look extremely similar, but the 62 (now) has a different brass alloy, a one piece bell, real mother of pearl inlay, a better neck, and a different color lacquer. Intermediate models vary considerably, but they usually have some components/feature of the pro models and some components/features that are cheaper. A student model is generally cheap - or cheaper - in comparison to a pro model and isn't made with as much attention as the pro models. As another example, Buffet has about a half-dozen clarinet models that they call 'professional.'ДЄ lot of companies have a professional model, an intermediate model, and a student model. They're all aimed at the professional market and all are high quality and pros play them, but they're all made a bit differently. Yamaha, for instance, has the 62, 82Z, and 875. In recent years, some companies have offered several professional models. Also, while Selmer wants you to believe that the Super 80 Serie II and III are better than the Mark VI, a lot of folks say that the VI wasn't only better, it was the best horn ever made. Additionally, that also doesn't mean that a Mark VI is better than, say, an SML Gold Medal sax or vice-versa. However, note that this doesn't mean that the Mark VI is, in some way, less professional because of its age.

The current Selmer Super 80 Serie II and III are professional models. The definition of 'professional' usually means, 'The best horn a particular company produced at a particular time that was aimed at the professional player.' So, speaking very generally - and switching to saxophone, because I know more sax models - a Selmer Mark VI saxophone from the 1950s was a professional model. They're also the distributor for Selmer Paris instruments in the US. Selmer Paris made the high-end professional horns. Note that there is a difference between Selmer Paris and Selmer USA, which made the Bundy horns. The album's gone, so I can't prove my point, but whatever. The wear on the keywork says it was played a lot. > Nah, wasn't a band horn.and really never played. You could then list the horn for, say, $275 and see what happens. Note that in your ad - take a pic of the repair receipt or something - and take some nicer pics. It's possible you could take this horn in to a woodwind shop and get a quote for how much it'd cost to get this horn in playing condition. The stencil on the case screams, 'Former school/community band instrument,' which generally means 'beater.' (And, interestingly to me, I saw a Bundy stamped 'Made in China.') This is probably the best example of, 'Condition is key.' You do have the floor peg, which is a plus. This is also regardless of whether you have a very old wooden Bundy or a newer plastic one. all the parts are there and there's no major damage), but unplayable. They range in price from $1100 for a fully restored plastic horn that looks a bit newer than yours, to around $250 for horns that are completely intact (i.e.

There have been a lot of Bundy bass clarinets sold on eBay. It's a student horn and most people don't really care that much about how old a student horn is.

Although a serial number might not make any real difference, anyhow.

It might not help: I couldn't quickly find a Bundy bass clarinet serial number chart. Serial's 16842, for the folks that missed that pic.
