That was the heading of the add a (trumpet playing) friend of mine posted on my facebook wall.
It turned out this trumped was rather large and had more this....tuba look to it.
It didn't say any brand, but I spotted the shape and the 'clover shaped' thumb-ring plate
knowing this was an GDR B&S stencil.
I was the day before searching the bay and workshops for a piece of tubing,
and I know B&S' standard BBb had just that gauge I was looking for, and not
knowing that particular 3V model, I assumed it had the same (small top bow. And it did).
Imagen that. You are looking high and lo for something and the day after,
some friend posts a sales add on your wall for just that particular thing
you are looking for.........And just to be funny.
So..I did intend to slaughter it, but now I'm not sure anymore.
It kinda just looks too good....And played decent too, with strong
and good enough privileged notes to go chromatic down to pedal
Whatever I end up doing...It's still a good story...
I might need to do a search for more big trumpets
