Matte, New Vs Old, Shiny!

Ok, this is in the music section, BUT, for a different reason then to share lyrics.

 

I have an investment dilemma...well, that 's the only word coming close to the situation. A friend from the orchestra offered me that I can buy his old trumpet for 1000 bucks. it's just 1 1/2 years old, so pretty new, top condition, in matte gold.

 

Against it I have to pit my old trumpet of the same brand, 10 years old, in shiny gold.

 

So, do I stick with my old one or buy the new horn?

EDIT: Ok. After playing it for a while and testing it, I decided it wasn't worth paying the 1k for it.

Now I still have my dear old Sella ^^ She's still shiny after all :P

Well, do you think you would need it? As in, would purchasing his trumpet be a good investment in five years, or would you be fine still using your current trumpet?

How well does your current trumpet work? Do you think it will still be working in another 8 1/2 years time when your friends trumpet is as old as your is now?

I own a trumpet too, and I'm with TPTI on this one.

If you can gaurentee that your old trumpet will keep on trumpeting then you shold stick with the old one. If not go for the newer one.
