 | Stage 1: California Light Hello to all my "friends" from the "TRUMPETHERALD"! I figured I would jump into the Pool with the new Horn + one of her "older sista"!

| Re: Stage 1: California Light Buzz, Nice to see you here. She's really something to behold. Thanks for posting the photographs. All the Best, Richard p.s. how's your reactions to her now that you've been playing for a few weeks? Any friends get a chance to play your California? What did they say? |

 | Re: Stage 1: California Light You know Felix gave a Stage 1, California for a door prize for the Rocky Mountain Trumpet Fest last year. I wish I was on the receiving end but that wouldn't have been fair. We hope he brings one with him this year so we can try it. |

| Re: Stage 1: California Light Hello Richard! Glad to be part of this site as well, don't know what took me so long. The more I play on this Horn the more I enjoyment I receive. Intonation is dead on in all registers, notes slot very easily, valve action is already smooth and quick. This axe has lighten quick response and this makes articulations very clean and without much effort. In many ways, the horn plays itself. With the minimal bracing, she feels alive in your hands, and it just feels right when you hold it when playing. I am finding out that this horn is like a Chameleon. It can sizzle and cut thru very easily in a Big Band setting and play mellow, dark and fat in a smaller ensemble setting. Man, Felix set me up with two Tuning Slide configurations: Square, and Round. The horn timbre changes noticably when you interchange between the two. I was looking for this horn to give me a bit more resistance from the Trumpet wall when I began the process of working with Felix and I could not be happier with the end result! Exactly what I was looking for. As far as some of my fellow "Trumpetheads" playing on it, I had to pry their lips and fingers off to get it back!!! They are all in agreement that she sings as pretty as she looks! As I stated @ the other site, Felix and Garry of NYTC are what's happening in the world of Custom Horns!

If you are referring to pix from the website, those are out dated! That horn is my Calicchio: Solo Copper 3/9. Our webmaster for the site takes his time to get the site up to speed!  Hopefully, it will be updated soon!Peace
