Good info here, just one more thing to add. The Besson Sovereign models are good horns. Not as good as the Prestige, but they play well. What she wants to do with the euphonium, goals and such, can help make a decision. There isn't much need to buy a 5000 horn if it is just going to be for fun and screwing around. It would be kind of like buying a Porche 911 to drive two miles to church once a week. BUT, if she's serious about working hard and taking it somewhere, then spend the money NOW. Definately compensating....either way. If she's got some money to spend, but doesn't know how far she wants to take it, err on the side of quality. I've seen too many students buy horns that they could afford, only to regret it a few years down the line (myself included in that). Look for deals, shop around, and play before you buy!...Danny
