Sure have, both the 993 and the 994 and the BBb Imperial. Compared to a 5/4-6/4 York, Martin or Holton or 2xJ, these are not huge instruments. The 993 is basically the standard 0.730 bore Boosey BBb body with a bell with a larger flare. According to the MG's own spec sheets, the weight is 26 lbs. I'd call it a 4/4 BBb (and so does WW&BW); just like the Yamaha YBB-321, which has the same bore and a bell with a smaller flare.
By comparison, my Willson 3400 Eb weighs closer to 30 lbs (and I wouldn't call it a BAT, either).
