ChasStarr is an unknown quantity at this point
I have actually used the cryogenic process....but not on my trumpet....on my softball bats. The thin walls of the newer softball bats will dent and crack very easily (if the entire team is using them) and after having to buy new bats every year, we got together and cryogenically treated them...the result...instead of one year, the bats lasted us two and sometimes three years before replacement.

Now...the most expensive bat we had cost $249, if it sucked after we had it done, not too big a deal. I'm not sure if I want to take the chance with my new $2,000 trumpet.

PS. My softball career ended 4 years ago due to injury. Budweiser elbow. :mrgreen:
