Here's the link....whattya think?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3720680631&category=16214&sspagename=rvi:1:1#ShippingPayment

If this thing really can play then I am selling all my other horns....as I play keys 90% of the time anyway.

At that price, that is quite a deal ... especially if they can play. I haven't had much experience playing those models though. Hope it works out for you!

That's my concern....will it outplay my other horns?

Money is so tight.

I've never played one but I have heard them ... very brilliant (not too bright though) sound. It may not have that awesome pure core to the sound like the Strad you have has, but it might play easier and more consistent. Of course, my conception of sound may be completely different than yours.

Ya done good. Those were good horns. And you didn't pay much. If you don't like it, you can always resell it for at least what you paid for it.

My friend the repair guy plays a Doc Getzen, and gets an amazing sound out of it, considering he practices about 3 times a year, usually right before pops concerts. But when you are good, I guess you can get away with it......anyhoo, great deal on the trumpet!

I'll have the horn by the end of the week.
Then it's the big trumpet playoff between ALL my horns listed below to decide which ONE....yes ....I said ONE horn I will keep.
Any bets as to which one I will be staying with?
Keep in mind I only play occasionally.
