Hi Dick,

I sold it my Mark VI that I had since 1970 about 6 years ago, and got
$3500.00 for it though. I now play  Keilworth, it's a much bigger horn, that
blows much easier, and has 2X's the bottom ...I really like it. AND I have
never had it on the bench, not once.... I made almost $3,000. on the VI and
played it for 27 years... Best investment I ever made. But seriously the
Keilworth is so much better, but also heavier, so now I get a workout when I
play as a bonus..... Well I'm trying to be positive....

All The Best,

Flip
