On a serious note, you say your valves are little more "restrictive". What did you mean by that?

I believe that he means that his valve section has a little more resistance than the more free blowing Zirnbauer valve set.

Jonolan: I meant resistance.

The Mnozil guys play Schagerl trumpets. I have two, and I love them. They use Zirnbauer valves. The Z valve is a high volume valve than the typical rotary. there is no solder joint between each valve in the line, and the valves are a little farther apart as a result. Anyway.. the Zirnbauer valve section is a dream to play. I am having a section made for my flugelhorn... and will report back. Those valves also cost more than some trumpets.

The video is really stop motion. The camera took a picture every 30 seconds, and then I put the video together. I will do another one (less bare feet though: too creepy)

Lipshurt: I have never noticed anything with playing the rotaries... but the are different (short leadpipe) so if you noticed something, maybe there is something. Just have to wait and see. I will be a little sad to see it go, but I will come visit it

I actually wanted the whole set. Bb (x2) C(x2) Bass trumpet, and Piccolo. After I got my Zirnbauer picc... the Tristan (a really nice instrument) came off the list. And everytime I go for another, the wife stops me with, "why don't you just make your own?"

Thats wife logic for you. I told her that if she just let me get the collection I wanted, then we wouldn't have all of these tools, and bells, and valves laying around (and all of that cost more).

Bless her anyway. If it wasn't for her, and Karl.... I would just be sitting in front of the TV watching Star Wars.

Cool video! Was he sitting in his living room working on a TV tray and watching old re-runs of Charlie's Angels while working on it? :0) Really, that was pretty neat to see.
Thanks!

I was privileged earlier in the year when passing through Singapore to spend a couple of hours at George's shop and met Jon, they were fine tuning Jon's horn which was close to finished. It was great to see a craftsman work with his client, changing leadpipes, making and fitting extra brace, altering its position after each time the horn was played.

Unfortunately I was unable to play any of George's horns as I had aquired an awful cold in England a couple of days previously.

Regards, Stuart.

I have a nice recording session coming up the first week of November where I can record this horn, my Shires, an Adams a4 Quattro, and my Adams flugel all on the same session. Looking forward to hearing what comes out!

How's the horn coming George ?

Just got the shipping notice! I might have it for the Maryland Trumpet Day this weekend...

Also have a US price list I can send out via email. If interested please send me an email and we can chat more about build times and more.

VERY excited!

The third-line C is a critical note, for sure. I didn't notice any particular problem on the soundtrack; sounded good!
Best wishes to the custom trumpet maker, really interesting concept.

Yourbrass: I didn't notice anything, but I don't hear it the way other people hear it. Thanks, but the Concept was from Karl, and Robert Schagerl, and Bernhard Zirnbauer. They wanted to make a horn that Thomas would love, and they have.

AS for the rest of the concept, I'll take credit for the reverse tuning slide, and some of the other things I added.

Cool horn, Trent! That was a fun video of it being built and it sounds great in this last clip. Nice Flaxen quote. Sounds a little tight up top. Is that just not being warmed up, or is this horn strictly for the money register?

It's not the horn unfortunately. It's me!
