From the Spur Shop
« on: August 03, 2012, 02:02:52 PM »
Here awhile back Jeff Erb was going to make me a trumpet out of bois de rose. Turns out he is highly allergic to all of the woods in the rosewood family. He got the body turned and ended up at the emergency room. So I thought I'd just get him to make me one out of something else. Well, I got it yesterday. Here she is......bois de rose........and she is a player for sure.
