Bach Stradivarius & Olds Recording Custom Trumpet [Bb]
1972-73 Stradivarius Valves [SN: 82,xxx; ML Bore] and Body & 1965-1970 F E Olds Recording BellA perfect matchup on leadpipe specs and bell specs for an exceptional trumpet Naturally the guy in the band who can't play as well as you, the wise guy for lack of
more apt description, is going to be dead curious as to what you have here.
Here's the thing, I'll make you a deal that this horn plays better than any trumpet
in your stable at the present time or refund your money less USA shipping of $58.00
...and you get a totally unique outstanding USA Made trumpet
Why wouldn't I keep it? The shop is awash in trumpets so thick it is difficult to walk through.
Try it for 2 days. Then let me know your decision. Please see my return terms below the photos before bidding.Call if you have questions.Notice in the photos that sometimes I like O-Rings on slides 1 & 3. They easily slip off if you prefer.I will have a new 3rd slide stop rod installed within a day or two and definitely before shipping.This trumpet will be thoroughly cleaned internally before shipping although it's already clean now, I'll do
it once again to be sure. Valves are smooth and good compression. You will be able to pick up a mouthpiece and head out to rehearsal when it arrives. 3 final notes on performance:
You will feel a strong tone vibration from the bell tube transmitted through your left hand;
Perfect intonation at double Hi C;
While slightly warm in tone, projection is outstanding, meaning it can pretty much peel paint.
RETURNS: For this particular trumpet, I only ask that if you feel it necessary to make a return request that you do it based
solely on playability and performance. I also ask that you understand you're getting a trumpet
with a slightly warm tone due to the high copper bell. So there won't be a return based on minor
blimishes or on brilliance of sound, since it's slightly warm-smokey in sound color.
The trumpet has just been clear lacquered this week to protect against corrosion or aging.
