I started playing on my LA Recording today with my TF (trumpet/flugel V cup) mouthpiece today. What a sound!

I had a 1967 Recording for years but did not care that much for it. My main horn is a Super Recording. A year or so ago I inherited a 1951 LA Recording. WOW! Not the same horn as the 1967. It is much more like my Super Recording, but with a richer sound. The 1967 Recording was sold.

At NTSU (that would be UNT for you youngsters) they had some trumpets in the school's equipment that had a tuning trigger on the tuning slide. There was a name for this mechanism, but I don't remember it. I don't remember exactly how it was set up, but I am pretty sure it wasn't with a push rod. But I think it is a good idea for someone with an extremely good sense of pitch. It would enable you to adjust pitch on any note no matter what valves were pushed down.

I hope you kicked him really hard in his tender bits.
