I have a Calicchio big bore 1sZ/3RL trumpet. On a good day in the proper high volume rock-band settling, I've been able to actually rise above the amplified instruments WITHOUT a microphone on my 1sZ/3RL -- all this amazing volume and still playing in-tune!! On the other hand, I can play ppp just as easily. These Tulsa Calicchios are fantistic horns!! I can only imagine what a pro could do with one of these horns!!

Before I bought my Calicchio I tried as many of the big bore horns as I could find -- the Schilke X3 and X4, the Callet Jazz, Holton's MF model, and even a big bore Kanstul. John made me a 1sZ/3RL and I've never looked back since!! I liked my Hollywood Studio 2 but the 1sZ/3RL takes the Calicchio to a new, higher level.

You gotta' try one of these Tulsa Calicchios BEFORE you buy your next horn!!
