Dave:
Didn't realize professional level euphoniums such as the ADAMS and Yamaha were nearing the 10k range these days. Wow. Last time I was in the market for a euphonium, seems like the prices were half that. So I'm wondering if the Buy it Now price of $5500 of the ebay Sterling virtuoso is a bargain price, given the market for new models. From what you can tell by examining the listing, do you think so? JP used to carry a Sterling Virtuoso IV for $7500 or thereabouts. Guess i need to start doing some serious saving.
