Hello all,

I presently have a Xeno 8335 in my posession that I am borrowing from a local dealer. However, I am a fourth year music student and poor as hell!

My question is this: How can I make money as a university student to pay for this horn? (or to convince the horn shop of some sort of monthly plan) I've already cancelled my cable, took on a student (about to cancel internet), job as campus police, but still barley paying rent, bills, food etc etc etc.

I'm sure some, if not most of us have been there. What have you done?

fyi: right now I play on a bach 180 strad and wouldn't really want to get rid of it, but the yamaha plays fantastically. I guess I could trade in my bach if it boiled down to it.

Thanks for any advice you guys can give!

Eric S.
