Musical Notes
Here's something you don't see every day... a metal taragato!
What’s on My Bench? Berp Bio Oil!
Hey, brass friends!! I am super excited to announce that we are officially a Berp dealer!!!
Hey, everyone! We’ve all been super busy here at the igloo, so once again our friend Primo has taken on some holiday decorating in addition to his normal duties!
What’s on My Bench? Custom Bach Brass
Recently we got in a big bunch of custom Bach trumpets and trombones. Here’s a few highlights from the group.
What’s on My Bench? A 1947 Sterling Bell Reynolds Trumpet
Hey, brass fans! I recently finished this fantastic horn, and thought you all might like to see some before and after photos. This is the third of this model that I’ve had cross my bench, and they are just as fun to play as they are to look at - so much, in fact, that I ended up buying one of them myself!
What’s on My Bench? A Burbank Benge C Trumpet
Lately I’ve been spending most of my time going through new stock, so what a pleasure it was to work on this baby!
What’s on My Bench? A 1976 Schilke B3
This horn came to us with some bell damage, but other than that all it needed was a clean and polish.
What’s on My Bench? A 1911 Conn New Invention Circus Bore Cornet
Someone paid extra for this little beauty back when it was new - it has gold plated buttons and caps, ferrules, pull knobs and water key assemblies!
What’s on My Bench? A Pair of Beautiful Conn 80A Cornets
These Conn 80A cornets are a lot of fun - great players, and can go from a super dark and velvety sound to bright and trumpet-like depending on your choice of mouthpiece.
