Hi! Anybody familiar with Martin Standard Handcraft trumpets? They look a lot like a committee but have well do they play?

I have a couple ... and a couple Handcraft Committees.

Excellent horns. I'd rate the Standard (nothing "standard" about it, other than the name ... probably a poor choice of words) as a splendid "back-up horn" to the Committee. Very similar blow .... just not quite as smooth as the HC Committee.
