Jimi, Nice soap box smiley!

...As far as bringing a badly treated horn brought to the craftsman's attention, I would expect that they would be glad for a new buyer to bring it back for repairs. I would not care about the repairs coming straight from the source if I didn't care about how I was going to treat the horn down the road...I'm sure that the original craftsman would see the same and gladly accept the work.

Matt, thanks for the heads up on the horns. I hope that towards the end of my tour here, some of those older models will still be around. I'm waiting for Uncle Sam to gimme enough $. I am still teetering between a Yamaha CHS and the used Monettes, however.

To all of you: thanks alot for the quick info on this subject!
