I agree with those that say the horn doesn't make the player. The horn can only hinder you. It can't make you better. I myself tried a MW2000 and didn't like it. I like my horn better. Maybe if I played on it 2 or 3 hours for practice time, I'd grow more accustomed to it and appreciate it more, maybe not. For $12,000, you can do a lot. Re-evaluate, re-consider and then decide... but I'm sure you've done all this so I'm just listening to (watching, as the case may be) myself talk. Good luck on whatever you decide.
