Agree with Annie - I still have my 1967 Getzen Eterna Severinsen paid for with my paper route money!

Also - make sure you really try out the horn you want to buy. Schilke's are great - but regardless of the brand - want to know that the horn you pay for is really the one you want. Hopefully you live close to a store that will allow you to spend some quality time with the horn before you buy it (even if you just go to the shop every weekend just to try it vs. other horns). Not sure what your opportunities are at the moment (see your profile says you are in Beijing).

Best of luck - and get the most out of that horn you currently have.
