Kipp- One horn to bear in mind is the Getzen Capri 561 (http://www.osmun.com/prod/Getzen/getzen_horn.htm). It's made by Hoyer with a slightly heavier bell for student use. It's got a good scale and plays very responsively. All the notes are there. The case is a Pro-Tec.

He wanted advice about what kind of horn to buy for the school. He has about $2000 (maybe a little more) set aside to get a horn, and doesn't know much about the market right now. This is for a high school band. Currently they have two Holton 179s and three yamaha marching horns. All five of those horns are around 30 years old. Any advice is welcome. Thanks in Advance! -Kipp Johnson __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
