Not a very good picture, but the thumb ring backplate appears to have the classic B&S shape.....

Re: "Maestro"
It might be shaped like a B & S but that's not where it was made. RUN! These weren't very good horns. I think they were sold by an outfit in Texas named Violin King about eight years ago.Heavy_Metal wrote:Not a very good picture, but the thumb ring backplate appears to have the classic B&S shape.....

Re: "Maestro"
I owned one of these for about 3 weeks. It allowed me to get within 50 cents or so of any given pitch. After I had some cutting and pasting done on it, it allowed me to get within maybe 15 cents or so if I was paying attention. You have been warned.
