The school should own the instrument instead, and let him play it. That's basically just to help play lower than E2, and play C3 and the low F in tune? That's it? Not worth all the money.

That's about as much as my professional grade Conn 88H trombone is. To use the example, the YEP321 is, on average $2500 new. But I don't think the kid should be thinking about buying a horn yet. I agree that bad instruments can lead to bad technique. You've got time anyway, a well-playing 4 valve compensating instrument (that's not for 30+ years ago)will cost a hefty wad of cash. Of course, this also depends on where you are and stuff. If aren't thinking 4 valves yet, don't bother worrying about a compensating horn. If you're thinking about getting a horn with a 4th valve, I would simply go straight to looking at large bore, compensating,4 valve horns. From a quality company like Wilson, Besson, or Yamaha, you're simply getting a superior horn. Most compensating horns are just BETTER HORNS on top of playing more in tune. I'd stick with a well playing 3 valve instrument for you. Why? Because you just basically said you aren't serious yet.

I, as a teacher and euphonium professional, wouldn't recommend you a new horn yet. Don't get serious after you get a new horn, that's a waste of time, money, and learning experience. Max out on the equipment you have before considering changing equipment. What would you recommend to a young player who wants to get a lot more serious

Plus if something comes up and you decide being a pro euph player for the rest of your life isn't what you want to do they don't really depreciate in value if you take care of it, so the large investment for a nice horn won't be a waste if you decide to go a different direction and no longer need an 8,000(+/-) instrument just sitting around. If you're serious and want to sound good, compensating is the way to go. Basically there is no benefit to having a non compensating euphonium except that they're (a lot) cheaper. I never ever used the fourth valve on the Yamaha because it was so out of tune, but on the Wilson it is definitely very useful (obviously).

I used to play on one of those Yamaha non compensating student horns and I now play on a compensating Wilson. A non compensating will play fairly out of tune when you're using the fourth valve. It will play in tune (as long as you play with good intonation and are in tune and such ) when you're using the fourth valve.
