Schilke, Getzen, Kanstul, Yamaha, Bach/Selmer/Conn I know for sure will be there. Yamaha has their own building! I believe NAMM has a smartphone app that lists all the companies and their booth numbers.

Look closely at the Sonare and Jupiter booths. Last year I was really surprised by all the cool new stuff on offer.

Adams and Carol Brass bear close attention, too.

In the past, there used to be a large contingent of European makers, but I don't know how that's going these days.

Wish I could be there. If anyone tries the new CarolBrass cornet with the Wild Thing-style slides, please post your first impressions here!

They posted this to their Facebook page just now:

And this a little while back:

I've attended the NAMM Show for several years however, this year, I have decided to pass.

For you "newbies"...here is some advice....

Be prepared to hear the Double Hb's and K#s played at FFF...it is simply "magical"

Make sure you bring your Trumpet & Flugelhorn mouthpieces so you can play test all of the new toys...it is a lot of fun!

Bring your camera (or phone that takes pictures) since you never know who you might run into. In the past, I've seen...Wayne, Doc, Mangione, Baptist, Ingram just to name a few.

Check out KO's Flex mouthpieces in the Stomvi booth.

Check out Getzen's 3003 Genesis Bb Trumpet in the Getzen Booth.

Check out Kanstul's 925 Flugelhorn (hopefully with a Copper Bell) and other horns in the Kanstul booth.

Bring plenty of $$$ if you want a Hot Dog & Beer for Lunch...

I just noticed Inderbinen is going to have a booth at this year's NAMM Show.

I've always wanted to try their "Wood" model Flugelhorn that Roy Hargrove plays.

One of my friends (who is a very good player) said he tried one and it sounded very "dull" to him.

I would be VERY interested in YOUR review of the horn.

If you get a chance to play test it, please post your review on this thread...Thanks!
