At my school we've got a collection of yamaha 3/4's for starters and take-home for practice. This year, we added two Conn 5j, and the change in the sound was dramatic. My 7th adn8th grade students have no problem handling them, especially with the deg tuba rest, and the 4th valve is great for getting them started on that as soon as possible. I highly recomend the 5j. It also seems to be solidly built, it will take a lickin'
