Everybody's equipment
Josh
Here is a start for the trumpet only threads we've been talking about. What
does everyone here play on every day? Do you have a wishlist? Here's mine.
Not that anyone cares what I play, but this could turn out to be interesting
with some of the pros that frequent this group.
Edwards Gen II Bb D5 leadpipe, K22 bell
Courtois flugelhorn
Laskey 75 rim on Bach 3C 26, 24
Wanted horn- Lawler 26, 2 leadpipe
Would also love to check out a vintage Martin if they blow open.
What about everyone else?

years old.
Tried a WT recently... it wasn't for me as far as playing goes. Amazing
sound difference between the three finishes, with gold being absolutely
beautiful and silver being positively brittle (good for lead I guess). I had
the guy from Mike's Music (Ontario) play them for me (did a much better job
than I did, though I like to think that not having played for 2 weeks prior
to tryout didn't help my chances!). Anyway, needless to say, he made the
Wild Thing sing...
Hoping to try out a Vintage One when I have enough money to buy one...
unfortunately, the Wild Thing whetted my appetite for gold, though silver is
probably easier to play for lead stuff.
I have no complaints about the sound of my Courtois, but it is hard work on
the heavy big band stuff. It's losing its lacquer somewhat too... but that's
okay, it just means it's got character.
Used to play a student model Blessing flugel - put me off flugels for life!
Played a B&H Sovereign cornet in the '80's in british brass band.
Championship section brass band scheduling put me off that for life!
Have been playing Bach 3D mouthpiece until recently... borrowed a Zottola
mouthpiece from our lead trumpet player... absolutely loved it. Bought it
from him and I'm now using it all the time, but I'm not convinced I'm
changed from the Bach permanently.

detailed info you can read the Gearhead Page on my two bit web site
but to save some of you the trouble the basics are:
Sand blasted and then gold plated Conn Vintage One trumpet-- regular
brass model and standard 46 lead pipe, no valve weights and lately the
"squared" tuning slide. When I ordered this burnished gold plate horn
designer Fred Powell and myself had the only two like it in existence
(don't know if that claim still holds true).
Kanstul 1500 trumpet, burnished brass with clear lacquer (looks like
the Wayne Bergeron model). This is the first copper belled 1500 the
folks at Kanstul have ever made in this style (just gotta be
different, you know).
Kanstul K-730 "American Style" long model cornet, 470 bore, lacquer.
One great little cornet!
Conn Vintage One Flugel, lacquer.
mouthpieces:
GR 66M on trumpets, GR 66/3 on cornet, GR 66FL on Fluggie.
Wish list:
To put the horns to good use and play the darn things like the big
boys do on all them 'thar jazz records! (like Miles, Chet, Sweets,
Hackett, Eldridge, Armstrong... the list goes on and on)

I practice daily on a Yamaha 635ST flugelhorn....Then, I bring a Getzen,
"Canadian Brass" model cornet to band practice every Wednesday evening. I
also have a Yamaha YTR 739T Bb trumpet, and a Bach Strad CML 239 trumpet in
"C" that I play occasionally......I am very bad at transposing, so I play
the C horn when I am jamming with friends who play guitars, pianos and
accordians....I can look over their shoulders and read their music with the
C horn........
Ed Stevens
Current List:
Bach B-flat ML, plated, #72 Lightweight bell, purchased in 1975 (sn
90827) when I got out of the Army and went back to school. Been my
bread'n'butter horn since.
Bach B-flat/C model 239, kept set up as a C
Bach D/E-flat model 304, kept set up as an E-flat
All 3 go to church and wedding gigs, choosing for the sound I want and
transposing as necessary.
Mouthpiece is Marcinkiewicz 5. I have a good friend that has a
different mthpc every time I see him. I figure any shortcomings are
mine instead of the equipment.
Wish List:
Time and money for lessons to learn how to play the damn thing.
Anyone who wants to contribute . . . . ah, no, let's not go there.
The One Whose Name Shall Not Be Spoken already has his/their hand(s)
out!

the horn. People call it "adjusting the gap" and it can alter the responce
and intonation of a horn quite a bit. It seems to be a nice modification.
Though I have a Bach mouthpiece I have a Bob Reeves Sleeve fitted to it.

Also have a Bundy I've had since I was about 10 or 11 (and paid for
part of it out of B-day money I'll have you know.) Right now, it has
JB Weld holding the brace between the middle valve and the bell in
place. The lacquer wasn't in perfect shape when I got it used and over
the years deteriorated until I finally stripped it with paint remover,
buffed the heck out of it and recoated it with clear spray lacquer a
while back. It actually didn't work half bad. The handle is held onto
the case swivels by baling wire that my dad bent and stuck through
holes he drilled when the cheap plastic broke at the swivel points not
long after I got it. I lost my dad recently, and even if at some point
I have the horn refurbished, I'll never put a new handle on that case.

I suspect it has less to do with neccessity than simply liking the
horns for various functional/cosmetic/emotional reasons, and people's
general propensity for collecting. Nothing wrong with that. I was
exercising my general propensity for being a wiseass... ;-)

For me, it is a tool. I know others who do collect......and do like to
have a new one every now and again. I probably have more tied up in a
couple of these than some have in all of theirs....not All!

Yeah but a set of wrenches don't cost ~$15,000+

I wish. Just for fun, I rolled through the Snap-On catalog to see what a
pretty complete set of tools + chest would cost. $15K was it, and that was
20 years ago...
But just this year I bought a vintage E.K. Blessing trumpet (fully
functional) for $22.

Guess who?
King Silversonic Bb
Bach C tunable bell (bell changed from 229L to 236 several years ago)
F Besson (Kanstul)piccolo short bell.
My wish list is that I get my newly repaired and customized Bach ML Bb
(12xxxx approx) back from my dad who has been playing it this week.
He says it added a whole step to his range. How's that for a Bach?
I have about 30 trumpets, will list them if anyone is curious.
Tom Meachum had over 200, I wonder how many he has now? The guy who
is a collector in California, (Hank somebody?) is said to have more
than 2000 trumpets.

Thanks Al. Not every trumpet works well for every situation. At my
session yesterday, I used my Bach Limited Edition for section parts
and solos but when it came time to peg some double A's, I pulled out
my Yamaha YTR 6335S. That YTR 6335S has been a bit of a security
blanket for me at times. I've owned it the longest (18 years)and it's
been a great horn for me. But, I can't help digging all my other
horns.
Actually, I don't think that I'm so bad when it comes to collecting
horns...I have a friend who has over 250 trumpets and probaly another
50 - 100 other brass instruments. That's being a bit obsessed in my
book. A likely candidate for a trumpet geek 12 step program. :-)

Me either. I know there are simply times where I pull out a tool from
the box and it works for the situation. I wonder (just typing as I
think) what guys do who have lucrative endorsement contracts and play a
plethora of horns? I know that I have several horns I really love, but
they don't always work for everything I need to do or do.
A very good studio guy I know told me once that the player's opinion of
the sound is the last one that counts. And, if you are doing commercial
work, he's absolutely right.
Wed did a Copland concert in April that I had to play the first trumpet
part on Music for the Theater. Ended up on a Schilke D, which worked
best for the orchestra and the theater.
If I had an endorsement with a specific maker, would I have as easily
pulled out that trumpet. Probably. Would that maker have been
happy-probably not. My loyalties are to sound, the ability to play what
I need, and the musical product, not the label on the horn.
So, does anyone have a Don Ellis quartertone trumpet they want to sell?

When it first came out that Billie Jean King was a lesbian, the joke was
that she would be a natural as a spokesman for the Snap On Tool Company.
I've never been able to keep a straight face when I hear that company
name.

Bb:
F. Besson Meha(Kanstul) (can't seem to pu this horn down)
Schilke X3 B(these valves and response... WOW!)
Stomvi Bb Heavywall Large Bore Reverse Lead pipe(what a contrast.. still trying
to get used to it.)
Bach 43(repairman's special) This horn survived an accident after hurricane
Floyd. It was underwater for 3weeks... it still works. The finish is a little
corroded. It reminds me that I survived.
Bach 37 Annv. Model(the cert is signed by Clark Terry) Clark played it during a
concert and signed my cert to return the favor. Also a keep sake.
Flugel:
Yamaha 635ST
Mothpieces:
Primary is Denis Wick Gold 1CW which I play on everything except the flugel a
DW 2fl.

O.k. since that ain't happening.

Copper Bell Kanstul with ovate tuning slide.

installed... I'm sure at an extra charge) and the gold accents
Bach Annv with 43 Sterling Bell, 7 reverse leadpipe, and the picture Jasper
finger buttons(sometimes it's just better to look good)
Stomvi with a bigger bell. Maybe I can get Carlos to Change mine , then I'd
have a USA model stomvi that just sings.
Flugel:
Kanstul Copper(is there another?)
C:
would like to try a nice rotary
Picc:
I want my Kanstul back. I just sold it and I miss it already.
Mouthpieces:
Get my denis Wick replated
And find a Giardinelli Clark Terry Model screw rim or a 3or 1flat rimed V cup.
I had one back in my younger days and miss them. Never loan a mpc. That was my
lesson.
I think that's it.
