Hey guys !!!
After some prototypes, I did.
This is my new e-flat/D trumpet, and it is now aviable.
You can hear at YouTube. Be good, I didn't play for over two weeks (very busy making horns).
ENJOY !!!

Hey BOL,
is it also in tune without the alternate fingerings? Even with the internet tone quality, the sound of the D in the staff and the third space C below it (concert Eb and F) is considerably different (I know that many players are just in the habit of the alternate fingerings even although it may not be necessary).

How about some details about the horn?

Thanks for your interest.
Well, this prototype, wich is the last before the production, had a little flat D. Of course, now it is in tune.
Anyway, lots of people plays D 1-3 and E 1-2.
Usually, I do it when going up (i.e. Scales). When going down, I play real positions.
It is not necessary, but helps your mind.

Details about this model:
Seamless bell -sppinned up from a copper (or brass) disc-.
Seamless leadpipe.
Bore is medium.
Valve cluster is made by Peter Pollard in the UK -monel pistons-.
By the end of this year, I will make my own valve clusters. I'm making some prototypes in diferent materials, such as stainless steel or various combinations of aluminium -which are very interesting-. Audi and other car top brands makes their pistons from aluminium -an alloy with special specifications-. Durability speaks for itself.

Who knows what will happen in the future...

Will post a new video from my C trumpets soon... Those are being played by principals at Barcelona Symphony, Opera Orchestra and free-lancers with really positive comments.

Best wishes !!!
