Scherzer Piccolo - The Interchangeable Leadpipes

This rotary piccolo trumpet comes standard with four leadpipes, 1-A and 3-Bb. The A leadpipe is the standard which is used for converting the instrument to the key of A. The variations of the 3-Bb leadpipes deals with the resistance that each pipe can give a player. The decorative rings on the mouthpiece receiver specify the tapers of the leadpipes: I (M), II (ML), III (L). The I pipe has a tight taper which will give the most resistance. This will allow a player to create a very bright sound and also it will help the high register speak more clearly. The II pipe has a standard, more common taper which will help in all of the registers of the piccolo trumpet. The III pipe has a more open taper, which offers the least amount of resistance to a player. This pipe will create an open feel with a full rich sound.

This model 2B New World Symphony” was produced only between 1926 and 1932. Engraving of the bell, done by legendary “fascinting Stenberg Brothers”, Charles and Julius. This one as a leapipe from Charlie Melk. What Conn said about this pattern in 1927: “New World Symphony 2-B Trumpet Destined to Become Most Popular Trumpet in the World - Flexibility of scale never before attained in any other trumpet, a superb "trumpet tone" without one blatant crack or trace of "squeel" from low F to the top of the scale, rich and solid in fortissimo and zephyr-like in pianissimo, faultless intonation throughout the complete range! "Most perfect trumpet the world has ever seen" is the way some of the most celebrated symphony and concert artists have charaterized our new 2-B trumpet”…

The conn 2b is a pretty modern trumpet, as modern as a bach strad or similar horn.

Very gig sound with a lot of core.

Conn 22B - 218XXX - New York Symphony Early Model 1925 - Famous model in Bb and built in 1925. Signs of use. Compression not good but possible to use in Pro level. What Conn said in 1928-1930: “Made in a small bore, the New York Symphony trumpet has a very bright, crystal pure tone. It is brilliant without being "squealy" or "squeaky"; it has great penetrating power without being blatant; it will play pianissimo without faltering or losing its trumpet color; it will play fortissimo without cracking or becoming harsh; it responds with the slightest breath and can be played vigorously all evening without exhaustion. The unparalleled favorite in theater orchestras, dance orchestras, the smaller symphonies and concert bands, and for solo playing”.

   

Cornetim Bach Mercedes - Manufactured at the factory in New York (closed in 1953), with bell "CORPORATION", serial number 11747, which means by the tables, was manufactured in 1951. This is a "Long Cornet", with the same "Bore" of a ML ML Stradivarius of that time but with 38 and bell "leadpipe" 7. Comparing with the finishes and materials of a Stradivarius "Vintage", there is virtually no difference in quality, since the same pieces were used for both models. The example, the pistons are manufactured exactly with the same materials professional level that characterized the "Strad's." As the serial number, is framed with the serial number of manufacture Bach Stradivarius.

   

Getzen Eterna LB B877 Cornet - This cornet presents original finishes and components. Mechanically in good condition, however they are visible signs of small old repairs on the upper arms. Bell, leadpipe (main pipe) as well as other parts of the instrument, never been altered or removed. That said, produces an impressive sound quality. Since it is a very rare model, I contacted the Getzen factory in order to know detail information about this cornet. The answer was: “…It appears to be the Eterna 800LB (LB on valve set means large bore)….  It is large bore, and in the early 60's that would have been .468". This still has the non-pearl finger buttons, no saddle and lever water keys. I would estimate this to be from around 1960-63. The Eterna is a professional line…”. Model Used by Philip Smith of the Orchestra of New York ... can verify are here:
