I've had mine for three years now and love it! Mine is one of the early HB 50's and the fifth valve and the lead pipe are a little different than the brand new ones. Intonation takes a little while to get used to as it does on every horn. The hardest thing that I've found is trying to get that huge, open, dark sound at very loud dynamics. As soon as I learned to stop "pushing" the horn really opened up for me. If you get one, have fun! I've only played one other 6/4 horn that I would consider trading mine for. Enjoy!
