Your Holton H378 is a student model. You can keep your horn as long as you want to. You should not go to a 'professional' model yet. To sound good on a professional model you need proper support, lots of air, other stuff. There is nothing wrong with your H378. Student models are made with different qualities and good student models are made so the student can hit notes easier. As you get better and stronger and understand things better you will try some pro model down the road and you will want to switch, but there is no rush for that.
Silver horns will allow your articulations to speak better. The softer yellow brass will absorb quite a bit of your tonguing and possibly some of your tone.
