Thank you this helps immensely. Mine is 29376. I'm guessing according to yours it was made early 2000's. If we get a few more we can establish a pattern. |

Thank you. That's a third of an inch. I'm out a little more with my 3cfl. One half inch. Not much of a difference. Why do you play the 5c instead of 3c? |

I play the Yamaha 14C4 (heavily modified cup, throat and bore on the trumpet, and sometimes a Bach 5B, so I thought way back that I should keep to the same rim size. _________________ Principal trumpet Gothenburg Opera Orchestra
