I also have a 1963 ML Mt.Vernon serial no. 24xxx. I sent it to the Brass Bow in Chicago 12 months ago for a valve alignment and ultrasound clean. It has a fantastic timbre with a beautiful balance of overtones and no trace of metallic sound at all.
Having played many new Bach trumpets, I do feel that a good Mt.Vernon is well worth the prices being asked ( around US $2000 - $$3000)
