 |  Need your thoughts on a Getzen... Hello, I have recently started playing again after taking 30 yrs off and I am currently looking to upgrade and may have a chace to purchase a one-owner Getzen Doc Severinsen from the mid seventies that appears to be in great condition. Any thoughts on this model? |

 | Re: Need your thoughts on a Getzen... If you can get a mid 70s or earlier Severinsen Eterna in great shape, you should grab that little puupy right away. A great pro horn. My dad had one with the serial number under 1000 and it was one of the best horns I ever played. Go for it!

| Re: Need your thoughts on a Getzen... As always, try before you buy. Most likely it's a terrific player, but a few dogs were built, as well. My best friend in high school had one from that era that was not good--he'd often borrow my Ambassador which he preferred. On the other hand, our band director had one from the '60s and for me, it's the last word on how a trumpet should sound and play. Go forth, then, and find a good one...
