Funny that no one's mentioned the 700S, the 'intermediate horn' that Getzen puts out. I've had mine since 1990 and it still sings. A tad brittle up top, but with the right mpc it mellows out, and with a larger pc, it's downright buttery. I've passed it to my young son, but every once in a while, I pick it up to find that sound again. What an underrated horn.
