Whew, some of these were really great. I wish they got more attention when they were being built.

1970s Bach Mercedes trumpet for $250 in Minneapolis MN. They were made with strad parts, this one is silver plated with the strad style block and slides, looks great. Unfortunately the seller only wants local pick up and refused to ship it, but someone closer than me can get lucky.

Man! In college I used a Mercedes for marching band. Those horns were great.

That's not bad as long as the horn is play-ready and mechanically sound.
K-Mods are the Selmer Paris horns that have modified receivers to fit american tapered mouthpieces.

The 1970’s Mercedes model was not made with Strad parts. Only the early (mostly New York and Mt. Vernon) versions were built with Strad components. They look just like the Stradivarius models, with a fixed third valve ring, but the valve casings are all brass and the third slide is in one piece, with no “water dump” slide. And the bore size was medium (.456).

I owned a couple of these over the years, and they played quite well. The ‘70’s Mercedes I used to own also played well, only not as Strad like.

Irrelevant as I'm definitely not local, but what did I miss? It's gone, so I can't peruse...

Feeling lucky punk? One blurry picture, but this Martin Committee is currently at $250 with a few hours left. I've got one, so won't be rolling the dice:
