haha, wrong thread, Patrick...

I'm gonna start things off on a negative note. I got to try the Schilke line at ITG Denver. The valves were nice, and the horns felt ok, but one thing was constant- STUFFY. My gosh, I just couldn't get the kind of feel I wanted, and that included an X3 (someone else was always playing the X4). I dunno why this happened to me, everyone tells me that they are very open horns. But, that was my experience.

Then again, there's only been two horns that I thought were more than open enough- the WT and Selmer Paris' Concept TT.
