Oh, man, looking at that painting ( picture ) I felt myself transposed, breathing the fresh autumn air as I walked along that peaceful country road, leaving the cares of the world far behind me.
You are an amazing artist, Wayne.

RE: Selmer Trumpet Bell Tapers?
I agree that the Selmer horns have a unique sound and I think it is because of the tone ring on the bell. I have a 1942 Buescher that has a tone ring similar to the Selmer Paris horns. It is my second favorite horn for solo work.

RE: Opinions of General Quality of Martin Trumpets
@dr-go
Some great playing there, Doc, but I don't think it's because of the horn. The grease may work well on the Martin, but IMHO I bet you can get that greasy thing on most any horn you play. -
RE: PLEASE KEEP CIVIL!
Posts getting derailed can be annoying, but ok as long as someone gets things back on track. I will stick with a thread if it is interesting .

RE: How many is too many?
@j-jericho said in How many is too many?:
If you don't enjoy every one of the ones you have, you have too many.
I concur with this statement. I own 6 trumpets, a cornet and a flugel. The trumpets get played regularly on a rotational schedule and the flugel and cornet get use for certain pieces of music that seem, to me, to benefit from their particular sound.

RE: In search of “my horn.”
Interesting thread. I like dark, and I get that in spades with my Conn Vintage 1 and my Buescher 400. But if I want the flugel sound I simply play my ACB doubler.

RE: Issues Loggin In?
If I login using Microsoft Edge, everything on the page is frozen. I get logged in normally when I use Google, which is what I am now using.
I wonder how many others are locked out and unable to complain because they don't know the admin's e-mail address. -
RE: Old Photo
As for the picture, I must say, Dale, you look like a very distinguished gentleman indeed.

RE: Olds Recording
@dr-go said in Olds Recording:
George, what year?
Hi, Doc. They tell me the serial number puts it at either a 1938 or 1939.
By the way, while chances aren't great we'll meet in this world, I would sure love to play with you on our recordings in a duet in the great hereafter.

RE: Olds Trumpet ( Model# NA100ZU )
I am happy you took the time to reply, David. It is annoying when you offer help and never hear back.
I am awaiting my 1939 Olds Recording that is in transit. Now that is a real Olds and can't wait to play it.
