Musical Notes

Check out this super fun horn! This is probably the fourth bass trumpet to cross my bench since I started working here, and also one of the nicer ones!

Every now and again, we receive an item in at the shop that just completely stumps me. (HEY! I'm looking at YOU, soprano trombone!)

This is a very nice professional instrument, and the previous owner cared for it as it only had one small dent. It was, however, pretty full of calcification and had a few stuck parts due to not having a regular chem clean.

This Jupiter 1110 is a great choice for those on a budget, and I have just gone over it to make sure it’s in perfect playing condition. This one didn’t need anything except a little valve oil, and it’s all ready for your next gig!

Today’s awesome horn is a Conn 62H trombone, and it was a lot of fun to work on! Serial number dates this one at 1970, and it still has a lot of years of play time left in it.

A 3 MLP LA Benge, serial dated it to 1980-81 is refurbished at The Mighty Quinn Brass and Winds.

This is a 1967 Getzen Eterna Severinson Model, a great horn for Jazz and Commercial playing. Refurbished for resale at The Mighty Quinn Brass and Winds.

This one is a nice Holton H279 - it’s seen some action in its time, but is still pretty solid and will serve you well. It badly needed a cleaning, and had neon green corrosion on its rotors, but now it smells like clean dishes and is ready to play! I did some minor dent removal on the bell flare as well, and the screw bell works well.

Today we got a new shipment in, and I got to have some fun with everyone’s favorite sport - Tuba Rasslin’! Don’t worry - I won this round!
