I was good to myself
« on: December 25, 2012, 02:15:09 PM »
this Christmas. ;) I talked with Billy a few months back about making this trumpet and he came up with some great ideas before we were done. The barrrel is one of his 6 1/2" in Macasser ebony with some awesome figure with a copper ferrule and a mastadon ivory mouth piece. MERRY CHRISTMAS *bannana*

Bill, Im about to send him some linen micarata that came out of my Dads old knife handle stock. Billy has told me his personal favorite mouth piece is the micarta. Ill send you a PM when I send it so you can ask him for one.
