Thanks Ed..everyone...for your comments and suggestions. I was honestly surprised to have so many hits on a new thread in less than 24 hours!!
The information I have gotten here has helped me tremendously. I will look deeper into Weril. I sort of glossed over their website, mainly because I saw many of their student horns and thought, "Ahh...another
turn and burn trumpet factory".
I know, I know....jumping to conclusions too fast, but how many patient trumpet players do you know...really.
I just joined this forum, and I am so happy to see a group of trumpet players from which I can glean some tips and info.
Thanks again,
