I don't think I would ever buy an instrument that makes something that looks like

Also, I do not know what kind of inferior half-brain I must have, but I do not possibly see the benefit of a horn that enters in the third valve for apparently no reason. Not to mention the absence of a kick-back stirrup for any sense of tuning combinations with the first valve.

At look alone, I would say that at best it plays like nothing you have ever played before.

At worst, I would say I would rather be playing a Blessing again. :thumbup:

It's made in Germany, and you know the Germans make good stuff

The infamous Smith bugles were made in Germany.

Look at the specs. A .488 bore mello, humongous. A .527 bore euph, dinky. I'd be very suspicious.

I've never seen any of these in person or at any dealer. I am rather skeptical of a horn I can't go try myself.
