Shoot......we could also drive to work in a 4 door 1965 Falcon decorated with rust and bondo and we'd still get to work but a Vette or a Mercedes gets us there in style. We could also eat cereal out of a plain box marked "cereal" but "Lucky Charms is magically delicious". Let's face it.....most of us here would do just fine if the only instrument we owned was the beat up Olds Ambassador we played in 5th grade and stuck with the mouthpiece that came with it but a custom Monette or Blackburn or Mt. Vernon Bach trumpet captures our imagination. It's about art and style. Why not have fun with it?
