M&M Alex Bb Bass Trumpet

crowmadic · 11-11-2007, 11:04 AM

There's a Bb Bass Trumpet w/pistons on Ebay. It's made in China. It's called M&M Alex. Do we have something sweet here, or something that will disintigrate like chocolate in summer. Does anyone have any experience with this horn, or comments?

1. bass trumpet

2. ebay

3. China

I don't mean to sound like a jerk. But if those 3 things don't set off alarms buy it and let us know how it goes

confuoco,
I saw one on ebay but I will be able to try one in the near future; i'm not planning to buy the one on ebay. I just wondered if anyone had some experience with it. It's like buying a cheap suit, if the stitches hold it could be worthy of wearing. In this case if it's reasonably in tune and doesn't fall apart in a year it could be worth the experience. We're talking about an instrument that could probably be bought New for $300.00. This has given me an idea for a new Thread.............crow
