Hello all! My name is Dan. Right now, you are saying "Hi, Dan" to the screen like it's an AA meeting :). I played trumpet for a good many years as an adolesent. I have since found my nitch in percussion, and have not touched my horn since. Poor horn! It's been about 10 years! Well, I am trying to move to Australia and was looking through my old gear to see what I could sell. I can't really find much information on the horn :(. Seems to be made pre-fire and around the late 40's (serial number 86405). What's a little odd to me is that I can not find a Getzen that looks like it! It is alost pewter in color, wth silver highlights. Let me show you;
As you can see, I need to clean it up a bit, but it's in perfect working order! Just a coupla dings here and there, all small. Sorry for the poor quality picture, but it's from my phone. I have the original case and mouthpiece! Is this fine horn worth anything, or am I wasting my time? I appreciate any info! Thanks.
Dan
