Re: Flugelhorn advice needed

Not easy to find online, but I found $4,300 for the Rembrandt. Whew! Is this the ballpark cost of your horn? (yikes!) I'm not quite *there* yet.

You might want to look at the Getzen Custom Flugel - just came out - and if its like their Custom Trumpets - should be a nice horn. It'll be higher priced than the Eterna.

And Flugelgirl is right on about the mouthpiece - makes a big difference in the sound.

Re: Flugelhorn advice needed

Anyone have any experience with the Flip Oakes Wild Thing flugel? I've got two WT's, a Bb and a C, which I love... I'm not really diggin my old Benge flugel, though and am thinking about looking for something new....

Thanks!
