Thanks everybody!!!

Been talking with and writing to many of you in the know.

At this point, a finalist is the medium-red. Thinking scratched with lacquer.

Any thoughts?

Hi Mike,

That sounds like a great horn for you! I'm looking forward to trying that model soon at the TrumpetFest that Bruce and I are hosting. Geez, that's tomorrow!

Toys, toys, toys.... uh I mean TOOLS, yeah tools!

I can't see a horn being better than my Large Red, but I look forward to trying them out!

Take care,

Trent

Actually, Trent, it's the Eclipse - Heavy Medium Red which will be at the Northern Brass Trumpetfest, tomorrow. This one is finished in clear lacquer, which I think looks stunning!

I agree with Noel's post about the Heavy Medium Red:

Quote:Medium heavy red - much warmer, richer sound. slightly slower response - more resistance, more depth to the sound, very powerful projection, similar slotting and flexibility, great range of colours - equally bright to to very dark sound (again affected by the choice of finish. Great jazz soloist horn or symphonic section playing or for powerful warm lead trumpet. (Also happens to be my second Eclipse!)



Can't wait for tomorrow!

See ya soon!
Bruce

Hey, having played the Medium red, I can honestly say that its the thickest, darkest most compact sound Ive ever heard come out of a trumpet bell that I was attached to. I dont think any jazzer could go wrong on this one.
On a side note, please excuse my typing as Im in a PC cafe in Berlin and german keyboards are REALLY weird.

Jarrett...I know what you mean. The guy from whom I rented a cabin in BC this sumer is from Germany so my net access was via dialup and his laptop computer. Don't you love the reversal of the "Y" and "Z" keys? Oh...and how about the <ctrl><alt>"Q" to get the "@" symbol? wild.
