TrumpetMaster - View Single Post - Opinions about Conn Constellation and Martin Committee

I first played a Connstellation around the middle of last year and I was hooked. My trumpet teacher let me try his, and I didn't want to put it down. Now myself and another one of his students will probably never buy another horn. By the way, not only did Chet Baker play one, but other notables of that instrument are Maynard Ferguson, Blue Mitchell, Lee Morgan (so says my trumpet teacher), Cat Anderson, Freddie Hubbard, Woody Shaw, and that's all I can think of right now. Anyways, it's a beautiful instrument, but very different from the Martin Committee.
