Antwoorden van een engels-talig forum:
The S981 is the same as the S991 but without the high G key. It is also slightly cheaper. As far as I know, they still make it. I used to learn with a great player who worked at one of the largest dealers of saxophones, he could get anything he wanted at a discount and chose that model. Gilad Atzmon plays one IIRC. Possibly, its like the people who prefer horns without high F# keys, maybe they feel it sounds better? And a high G is easy enough on a sop without that key anyway.
S981 does not have the full ribbing like a S991, therefore the S981 is lighter than the S991
Eerste productie-datum kon ik niet vinden.
