I would imagine what the YBB621 already suggested would be right down your ally. However, you might also strongly consider the Conn 5j. It's small enough to be easy to play and easy on your back but also is very capable of a very big professional quality sound.

The Conn will be a lot cheaper than the Yamaha but isn't likely to be nearly as well assembled either. Be prepared to play atleast a few to make sure you are getting a good one.

Talk to Dillon's, Baltimore Brass, Brasswind, and Low Brass Werks. None of these places will lead you wrong. It looks like both Baltimore Brass and Dillon's are having specials on the Conn 5J right now so now is an ideal time to shop around. Both places will treat you very well.

Good luck!
