Any of you have a trumpet made by Mr. Don Watkins?

Barry,
The first one is Snakewood and African Blackwood with a hen wingbone mp. The second one is a Jordan Yelper.  The third is Osage with an African Blackwood bell.  The fourth is Snakewood and African Blackwood with a Buffalo horn mp.  These are all fantastic calls.  I know you will like yours when you get it.

My Pleasure Bill.

I have to pull out the Acrylic calls out and date them....I think Watkins was the first to use poured Acrylic.
Do you recall ?
The mouthpiece concept was cool too....certainly not the first there.

Not really sure if he was the first or not. I know Billy Buice was using Corian, years ago. And I have the # 1 call that Ralph Permar made that I think, is acrylic.

Thanks.....
