10 to 15 years? The 20J's our school has were built in 1966. I agree that the Meinl-Weston 25 is a nice horn, but the one I played recently had a fairly flat response, and the sound wasn't exceptional. Still, MW doesn't always make the most consistent horns, so I may have been playing a funky one. Schmidt 3301/02's have a nice, bright sound, but MAN are they heavy! Mira 186's are cheaper and better than the 25 with the current exchange rates.
