This trumpet is a real player, it has been in the hands of two trumpet players before I purchased it in 2020. The last owner is a world renowned trumpet player who takes care of all his instruments and this one is in excellent condition for its age. The horn has a beautiful tone, a real player. It has a few dings 2 to be exact and I have shared the picture. Nothing that is effecting the playing or sound of this horn. It was modfied on the main spit valve was changed out, there are heavy caps on the bottom of the valve stems they add a little weight to the horn and look real nice. The horn is two tone, brass and some silver. Hate to part with this one, but I am making room for another trumpet.
