I have a Jean Baptiste and they, to me, are only good for beginners and not college. the material they are made of is quite cheap. I got one from my cousin and ended up paying about half the price to fix it as they are new. The only other brand i know that you listed is Jupiter and those are high intermediate in my opinion. You get what you pay for(usually) and i recommend a Jupiter www.wwbw.com is a good site with great prices
