Couesnon Bb trumpet

kjpooley@bigpond.net.au · 06-25-2008, 02:33 AM

Hi.
I bought a Couesnon Bb trumpet and wonder how old it would be. It has engraved on it:
COUESNON
105 RUE LA FAYETTE
PARIS
MADE IN FRANCE
52597
Hope someone out there can help!
Thanks.

Does it have a "Grenade" (pineapple) and a number on the bell? There is no known serial list for Couesnon. Suggest you go to Horn-u-copia and scroll down to the Cousenon line. You can read about the history, etc and view photos of trumpets of various ages, one might be like yours?
