Here is the first picture of the Eclipse Solar Bell Trumpet owned by Solar Bell, the artist formerly known as Schilke B6


I played a gig with the horn tonight...FANTASTIC!!

It is everything I could have ever wanted in a trumpet.

The 2nd set, I gave it, and a bunch of lead charts to the 3rd player and said "Have at it"

I almost didn't get it back for the 3rd set!

I will post more pictures soon and give it a review as I play it more.

Get ready for a whole bunch of Greats! Fantastics! Unbelievables! etc.

Hopefully this horn will prevent a future name change, to TR-300... Eastman.... First Act... or perhaps even China Bach Boy.



Chuck that horn is HOT :) Are you playing a different GR than when I saw you at ITG?

Congrats man, I'm sure the horn was well worth the wait.

Send my best to your lovely wife (and give her some earplugs cause I know how loud those Solar Bells can get!).

Best,
T
