I bought (without trying it out) a used Yamaha 641 from Dillon Music. It arrived today. Friends, I can not tell you what a difference in sound it has from the 3/4 horns I have been stuck on for many years. It is a shocking and wonderful experience.
I wanted to buy a new Miraphone 186, but the price was just out of my range. This used horn is a great substitute (for almost 1800.00 less).
NOW THE SHAMELESS PLUG AND ENDORSEMENT: Matt at Dillon understated the condition of the horn, which is a RARE occurence in the used horn market. It truly is in better shape than I could possibly hope, as it seems to be a could 25-30 years old.
Fellow tubists, I will add my name to the list of satisfied Dillon Music customers.
---It got here in 3 days, I am so pleased---
