the 601 is better ergonomically and is easier to play. the only problem is it is tall and hard to find a case for it. You have to order it with it.

Another problem is it has some intonation issues and they mat or may not be fixable with a mouthpiece. I did not have enough time to try a bunch of mpc's on it before it got shipped out. It was a red brass and was very striking and very nice sounding.

Another problem is no one stocks 601 BBb's and Amati/Strunal will not bring one over unless ordered and it is yours. No returns unless it has some physical problem.

The 693-4 is short, fat and wide and hard to hold. the 191 will blow it away volume wise as well. the 693 has soft metal and dents easy too especially the bell.

I have seen some used 601 BBb's but not often. I have seen more 601 CC's instead.
