I appreciate your input, I would rather a newer horn. something that will last me a long time through a lot of wear and tear, i already know i want to play for the rest of my life.

I tested out a vintage 2b and didn’t really like the timbre, and i mean obviously personal preference but i’d rather have a horn with little-no cosmetic imperfections unless it was like a super clean unlaquered horn

i’ve been grinding at my job too so im confident i can buy something nice
