[TPIN] Need help...

[Glenn Bengry]

Bill,

    It is a 25 bell.  If the tone and intonation are superb, keep it.  As 
Jon says, it has real value.  It is an excellent instrument.  If it were me 
I wouldn't sell it at all.  Unless you find one that is significantly 
better.

     Most of us have sold horns in the past that we wish we could get back!  
I had a 72 lightweight Bach that I wish I still had.

     If you have it relacquered, you might feel like you just bought a new 
horn.  Either that or you can ask more for the horn.
