Currently I'm not taking any lessons on it but a few weeks ago I went to a low brass symposium in my area and I asked Toby Hanks what he thought of the horn. He they're decent horns if they're in my price range. My band director likes it as well, compared to the school horn I play now. I play a YBB-105 which I don't particulary like. Too small. Doesn't support my high school band at all, 'cause I'm the only tuba. Too easy to overblow and it doesn't have that great a sound. The 321 compared to this horn is much better. I'm not sure how much new 321's go for but I'm guessing $4000 or $5000, maybe more? I don't know. But I agree, I should take some kind of lesson to see what a pro thinks.
