The piston valve Packer is a huge upgrade from what you have, I know you said no Chinese but there's really no comparing the Wessex Factory quality to the packer or the eastman.

Also the PT15 JP. If only they'd expand their selection a bit.

Buckeye Brass and Buddy Roger's Music are both in-state for you, and either might have horns in stock to try.

They play more or less like the sources. I don't know why they chose the 15 though.

At that price point, check out the B&S that Tom of Mack Brass (but not Mack Brass made) has for sale. That horn looks awesome to me.
