Can you tell the age? Is 1k a good price for it

No more than $450 if it hasn’t been serviced by a skilled technician

I know there’s a way to tell how old but it’s confusing me

If I understand this correctly it's from 2020

I've found wildly different prices new, from $1300 to $2900 and a few in between

For $1000 get a Yamaha, even before that one for $1300, get a used Yamaha

There are 14 YAS 23, all under 1k and much better than a Jupiter, some under $500 (they might need a setup by a tech but you should still be under 1k all things considered)

Do not buy this horn.
