Thanks in advance,

Not exactly sure about that one. I've got a 6345HG (#1012) and a 6335HGSII and they're both great horns, though one of the valve casings on the HGSII got a little bent somehow and now the valve doesn't work, but before that it was awesome!
Interesting question though, I'm a bit interested in that myself!

2 things that are visably noticable: on the Mark II the leadpipe is mounted farther down, i.e the horn feels closer to you (the bell bow) when it is inserted; and the Yamaha tradmark is put on the bell of the Mark II. I personally like the original Heavywall the best. I have purchased many of both types used for my students, and I have yet to find a Mrk II I'd keep over the original series.
