Thanks for clearing that up Larry. I really enjoy your posts.... everytime I read one I learn something new.
I'll have to check out the site to learn more of your C trumpet situation but wowza it sounds like you have got quite a beast.
A tunable bell Bach C trumpet.
I'm not very familiar with the 238 bell
I am a 229 25H man myself
I have had my best luck with blackburn pipes on Pic trumpets. Played a couple on C trumpets and didn't care for em. Just my opinion.
What kind of sound are you going for with this trumpet. What will you be using it for.
For those who don't play much C trumpet I think the H pipe is sometimes a bit much to handle. Just from what people tell me. But I think it is gives the best sound. Have you thought about an A pipe?
