Divide the additional cost over the 20+years you will use the horn. Ratio that with how much you enjoy playing and listening to the PT-15. I heard a great paraphrase once: "Why would anyone use an instrument which is not exactly what they wanted?" The price difference will be a mute point in only a couple of years of usage. Buy cheap shoes. Buy cheaper cars. Don't compromise on your career.
