A year ago I almost bought a GP11, which is a 4/4 5v piston CC for under 5k. Apparently the only "weakness" of that horn is intonation.

I don't know anything about this F though.

Sounds like you made a good decision.

I don't see that listed on the site any longer, perhaps they are improving it. What I would love G&P to do is build a new version of the K2001. The K2001 was an improvement on the Pro2000, so I am sure their new horn would be even better. If they could just fix the high C, they would definitely have a winner! (Although playing it 1st pushed in really wasn't much of a hardship.)
