Does anybody make their own custom trumpet buttons? I'm thinking like the kinds with custom inlays, etc.

@caburn There are wonderful horns around that have a very short piston travel, are stylish in the extreme and beautiful players... the early Buescher Aristocrat 264s. Everyone knows about the Buescher 400s - but IMHO, they are slightly overrated in that they are just well-made conventional horns. The earlier 264s, however... art déco finish to the extreme, and extremely easy players with a very warm tone - you can get them into cornet territory quite easily, and they can sizzle up there just as easily.

I believe that Courtois makes a flugelhorn specifically for Sergei Nakariakov with a trombone-sized bell and a 4th valve.
