You said it - I just wrapped up a theater gig as music director for a show the required contrabassoon and english horn. I gave up on the english horn - way out of budget everywhere I looked, but we were able to borrow a contrabassoon from a local university music department. An entry-level contra is more than three of my "pro" level guitars, and a "pro" level is $30-50K and up.
