If selling your present purchase and upgrading/ trading to another isn't going to be an issue down the road, then by all means go ahead and buy a suitable, new horn. HOWEVER, be aware that once you have spent more time paying your dues chop wise, you will likely have a much better idea of what you want and expect out of a horn. It would be a happy coincidence if your relative neophyte choice worked out to be the same horn, but not likely. If you decide to get a solid horn until you can eventually find "the one", make sure you bring your teacher or another experience player along when selecting and purchasing the instrument. They will have a much clearer idea of what to look for and potential problems. MANY companies are outsourcing some or all elements of their horn production to Taiwan/China, including (at the very least) Yamaha's student line of horns. Best of luck.
