Thanks for the free case, Gus...it protected your Sovereign all the way from the time I got it from you until I let it go. Not until I put a 981 leadpipe on it, which made a BIG difference.

ANYWAY. I've bought a couple horns from Stan Kolb at Taylor, a 4v top action Conn "Giant" Eb, and a 3v front action JW York & Sons Eb. The Conn cost me $135 and the York cost me $400. Stan is very reasonable and easy to work with.

I still have the York, incidentally, after spending about $1,500 to have it restored. Nothing on the market for what I have in this horn that will come close to matching its tone and evenness of pitch.
