That is too much to spend on the 641. It is a great horn and plays really well all around, but you should spend no more than about $2,000 for one honestly. With the options out there today in the world of euphoniums, you could go a bit better, but the 641 is a great horn. Matt Murchison plays one and sounds great on it. It's more the player than anything else, but it is a fine horn and will not hinder you much at all, if any. The price you quoted however is too much to pay for the horn, especially if it is lacquer. I know where you can get a new Yamaha 842 Custom for $4,200 if you're interested. If anyone is, for that matter, let me know.
