WTB/WTT: Schilke M1 or M2

FutureBC · 07-26-2009, 12:06 PM

Ive been looking for a Schilke M1 or M2, I'm willing to trade my Yamaha YTR-01 (discontinued student model) and my Olds intermediate trumpet for this horn. I'm also willing to buy it for up to $400.

I would not bother....the Schilke M models were an intermediate horn.

They were plagued with many valve problems.

Go to the Schilke Loyalist and read more about them.

Then find something else.

The M2's were Yamahas with a Schilke leadpipe and tuning slide. the valves were fitted at the Schilke shop. The pistons were the infamous "yamaloy." The M1's were all Yamaha. For a time Schilke did use the Yamaha valve section on his ML bore B series horns. They played well but had the same problems with the valves as Yamaha.

Find yourself a used B1, B2 or B5 (all ML .460" bore)
