There is one on ebay for a good price. I do not know a lot about them but it looks nice and Olds makes some great trumpets.

Is your question:

1. DID the classic Olds make a flug

or

2. DOES the new Olds offer a flug

Basically same anwers (YES) BUT different questions!

I was looking for a new one. I bid on the one on ebay but I still want to keep my options open. Where can I get a new professional one???

Certainly not the same as the 'classic' horns!

I'd look at Getzen, Kanstul, Conn Vintage or, if you can afford it, an Eclipse!?

The Olds Clark Terry Model (no longer made) is simply the greatest flugel ever made.

I have to agree about the Olds Clark Terry Flugel. I have played mine from buying it new in '78 and would 't trade or sell it.

What are the differences between the Clark Terry model and the L-12 flugelhorn. I know the bells were of different brasses. Other minor changes, or were they completely different horns?

I mean a vintage Olds horn. Mine is a 1968 L-12.

If anyone happens to HAVE a CT Flugel, and could stand to part with it, please let me know. Not kickin' tires, I'm a serious buyer. Thanks!
