For all Euphonium players out there; I need your advice! I'm looking to
buy a horn in the near future, and I would like your honest opinions on
the traits of a few models I'm looking at. Here they are:

Willson
Hirsbrunner
Perantucci/Sterling
Besson
Yamaha

If you could give me your opinions on the following characterictics on one
or more of the horns listed above:

Ease of playing
Quality & focus of sound throughout all registers
Intonation
Craftsmanship/Quality control/quality of materials
Customer service

I'd really apperciate it. Any other comments you feel appropriate are also
invited.

And of course, I know that no horn will sound good without a quality
player behind it; please assume we're talking about a fairly good quality
musician (not to toot my own horn ;), but I'm to the point where the
equipment is starting to make a difference and I could use some advice
from people who've played and oqned one or more of the above horns.
