Hello,
Please see my review of the unlacquered System 76 2nd Edition alto in the P. Mauriat subforum. After years and years of playing a Balanced Action and several Mark VI's, I made the switch to a Yamaha Z myself (very good horns, of course), while endorsing Yamaha. I have now chosen to endorse P. Mauriat saxes and don't miss either the Selmers or the Yamahas. I feel the P. Mauriat horns give me a completely unique sound for the first time in 30+ years of playing!
Let me know what you decide, I'm sure you'll find the best horn for you, best, DC
