Hi. My name is Jim, and I just stumbled upon this forum the other day while looking at used cornets. I'm currently playing a Bach Strad Model 37, ML bore, silver, using a Bach 3C mouthpiece. I've been playing trumpet for about 27 years. I play in a large community band (>75 members) in Michigan (See Home Page North Oakland Concert Band). I'm playing 2nd Solo part on Bugler's Holiday tonight at a concert.

I have been with this group for 11 years, and we have improved drastically from the days when we had 3 trumpets. Most the players now have cornets, too, and we are looking to play some of our pieces on cornet (as a section). I am in the market for a used professional model cornet.

Looking forward to learning from everyone here.

BTW -- I also play acoustic guitar with a church group. Also into motorcycling -- especially motorcycle camping.

Have a great day.

Welcome

Where is Oakland? Is it near Detroit?

Oakland County is just northwest of Detroit, which is in Wayne county. Our band practices in Lake Orion, which is about 40 miles north of downtown Detroit.
