The contest is over?

Trumpet guy · 03-04-2008, 06:39 PM

So early in the morning as well.

So would there be the possibility of another contest any time in the near (or not-so-near) future?

nplotts1 · 03-04-2008, 06:43 PM

They do a contest every year, from what I can tell. This year was NYTC, the past 2 years it has been an Eclipse Horn. I can't remember what the prize was in 2004.

I actually found out about TM because a friend on trumpet herald had IM'd me about entering the contest for an Eclipse (2003 I believe.)

Well here's hoping that NYTC will take a second year as well.

we will,if TM will let us.:)

you should do a flugle next year

. Or maybe a compleatly custom horn Hahaha

nplotts1 · 03-05-2008, 12:32 AM

Haha, I doubt that will happen, for the same reason I doubt a C trumpet would be a prize. Not everyone uses a C or a Flugelhorn. Everyone the I have ever met who plays trumpet has a Bb and will use a Bb. The object of the contest, for the producer, is to help publicize their products. The NY 7 is the newest horn on the line, and also by being a Bb, draws interest from the largest demographic of members, leading to higher publicity. It all makes sense.

On the other hand, if they have a new line of flugels they are trying to spread the word about, it is a possibility. Or maybe they will make a Piccolo trumpet next

as they dont have any on their line currently. I'd be willing to look into an NYTC Picc.

The new California flugel is pretty great, spread the word...

Well the Magnum is a Bb trumpet and its the new newest horn, so would't that fit your logic better?

On another note, you decided to buy an NYTC trumpet of your own, huh? I wish I had the money to do that.

nplotts1 · 03-05-2008, 07:53 AM

Hey, I am no business major. And besides, the Magnum is $2000 more. You have to find a balance between profit loss and potential profit gain.
