LIMITING MY TRUMPET COLLECTION THATS WHY THIS HORN IS HERE .
Great era and history of American trumpet making WILLIAM FRANK CO Bb Trumpet made in CHICAGO, IL. Serial #103xxx . This horn still has very nice charm of original golden lacquer with some tarnish and a bit of rust around but overall very good vintage shape. There is very slight ding shallow ding in the mid of bell bow not affecting anything PLEASE SEE ALL PHOTOS. HORN IS ALL ORIGINAL . Stopper rod/ screw is no longer there on tuning slide but you can find somewhere if you care. The tuning slide being rounded looks very innovative like for the vintage era of this horn . Horn has small 4.50” bell flare with very small partial crease line on the bottom very hard to notice or see but I believe it has large bore and delivers great darker tone perfect for jazz. Just play tested it and have thoughts of selling but I need to limit my collection. I used to compare many trumpets to each other for playability .
Horn comes with no case , no mouthpiece but I may find case if you need it ? Valves are very good bottom spring action . All slides come out. Very good compressions . READY TO PLAY ! This horn feels very sturdy in hand and secure . It’s a standard weight not a lightweight horn . GREAT FOR JAZZ PLAYING AND OTHER STYLES. PLEASE SEE ALL PHOTOS AS THE SALE IS FINAL NO RETURNS. You won’t be disappointed with this horn.
