| Is there any kind of consensus on the most desireable vintage horn I know this is a loaded question filled with personal preferences, but, I was wondering if there was one horn that most of you would like to have and play? Last edited by GaryW : 02-22-2008 at 05:51 PM. Reason: added content |

Next might be Olds Recording. Practical players might say Conn 22B. That *is* just "one" trumpet. One at a time... | |

| Re: Is there any kind of consensus on the most desireable vintage horn Mine would be a Selmer Balanced Action, but I don't you'll find TOO much agreement. There are so many neat vintage horns and so many different reasons to want a particular one (look, playability, someone famous had one, etc...) that I think you'll get a lot of different answers, which is cool! |

| Re: Is there any kind of consensus on the most desireable vintage horn Probably a Martin Committee, or one of the first, early Strad's. Pedal C, I wouldn't mind coming across a Selmer Balanced action either ! Trumpet or saxophone. Last edited by Toobz : 02-22-2008 at 08:10 PM. |

| Hey GW: Me? Give me a Committee in a heartbeat( #'s between 140k & 160K) Mine's a '55. Also,a good vintage Olds is also a primo blow. Have a '56 Opera & Super. Gotta clean them all every week. As you said: Everybody loves one of the old toots, with a personal affection to their own favorite. But I like this question!! Dying to see where the Martin stands with my contemporary fellows (60ish) Anybody?? Franco |
