You're pretty wrong here pal. True Getzen is Edwards parent company. But saying what you said is like saying that since Ford happens to own Aston-Martin, an Aston-Martin DB-7, is the equivalent of a Mustang GT. Secondly, look at the lists of what Orchestral Pros use, Edwards is gonna top that. It has been my experience as a former tuba player, and life in general. You get what you pay for. I know this may seem unpopular, but the horn DOES have something to do with it. Some players come to a point where their instrument starts to hold them back, as in the case of a friend who plays a Yamaha 613 Bass Trombone. He bought an Edwards. It has improved his playing dramatically. Now, if you want to talk over-rated how about mentioning those remarks made by Trent Lott about Strom Thurmond. If the idiots who eschew that want to point fingers start with their own party! Making him apologize was a terrible terrible thing. Senator Robert "KKK" Byrd never had to for using the dreaded n-word last year. Chew on that one Jesse and Al.
