Pros: smooth action works great
Cons:

Bought 747 in December 2007 have not had any problems with it. A must for any serious trombonist works great slide is very smooth quiet trigger action. Had a Yamaha previous but the Getzen beats it hands down.

Pros: smooth slide action trigger works great wonderful tone
Cons: waterkey is poorly engineered

I bought this horn in December 2007 works great have had no problems with it slide is fastest (maybe) in all of the trombone section at my school.
The only problem is that the Getzen 6.5 AL Large Bore Mouthpiece is that it collects spit in it like crazy when you go low.
