Plays really well! I was pleasantly surprised.
This model has gotten positive reviews on Sax On The Web (SOTW).
It’s no Yanagisawa, but it was a great backup horn for my professional work and would be a step up horn for an advancing Baritone saxophonist.

There are some minor surface scratches, but no major dings or dents.
The pads are supple and in great shape.
Bari pads tend to last forever because most of the moisture collects in the top part of the instrument and never reaches the pads.
Double arm construction on low notes helps keep them in adjustment and out of the repair shop.
This one also has a floor peg, which is a nice feature because you don’t have to have the weight on your back and neck, and can focus on musicality instead of managing the instrument.
Range from low A to high F#. Comes with original solid 4 latch case with wheels.
Between the floor peg and the wheeled case, this is a really “low impact” setup that anyone who has lugged their bari around for awhile can appreciate.
The right side of the case has some glue that sometimes melts and makes opening that side of the case a little resistant.
I cleaned it out with some Citrusolve, and here is a video of it not sticking:
