| No, it is a matter of preferences. You know you can play the same make of horn and you'll find one that just plays better for you. He had one he had gotten before christmas which I really liked and the one he had gotten about a month ago for a show. I actually took it out of the packaging. I feel in love with the horn and then he got in some Bergeron models - including the brushed brass finish which I loved. I didn't decide to buy one right away because I want to find a horn that I can keep for a while. So, I tried it the last two times down as well.
I think the 1500 is the best fit for me. Of course, I have been in love with that model for a long time. now. Well, actually I went ahead and bought the 1500. I always thought that the copper bell would make it harder to play and manipulate. I was wrong. It is one of the easiest horns to play that I have ever played.
