Hi everybody, I'm from Italy, Rome, male, 44 yo.
I started playing guitar at 11, then bass at 15, then trumpet at 19, and stopped everything at 24 to complete studies and work.
I just maintained an acoustic guitar (sigh!) to strum in loneliness....
Then at 39 (40's crisis) I got back in action, with plenty of budget and intention, and realized a "particular" CD to celebrate the return
www.cdbaby.com\maumari
mixing my own playing (guitar, drums, bass, trumpet, keys) with loops and various "thieveries"
.
Actually I'm focused on studying trumpet, in love again, and playing bass, guitar and/or trumpet, in various combos, getting a real fun out of it!
I play
B&S Challenger I (the "back in action" tool) with 7C and 3CW
Amati Kraslice sterling trumpet "something model" about 50yo with 7DW and 7C (can someone tell me please where to find an Amati serial numbers list?)
Beyerdinamics Opus 62 clamp-on mic
Centerpitch Universal CP2 Tuner
Tom Crown Wah mute
Yamaha Silent brass system
I'm waiting (hours!!!) for an old 70's Conn Director Cornet to arrive at home from USA (ebay) and for a "flugelhorn style" 1935 Olds Ambassador trumpet (ebaying again)
Thanks to all of you for the accurate info I can find on this Forum!
See you soon.
Mauro
