 B♭ Trumpets:
  • [FOR SALE] Romeo Adaci "Referenz" 2001 Photos -- hand made, rare conical bore, and one of only 17 produced (each unique) before Mr. Adaci passed away and his shop closed
  • [FOR SALE/TRADE] Kröger "Viper+" KT-VIP+ -- boutique trumpet from Germany with unique serpent bracing and floating bell that can be locked down for transport
  • [FOR SALE] Antoine Courtois "Evolution I" ACEV1B-3-0 -- an absolutely gorgeous super-heavy Parisian gem in gold with a built-in adjustable gap receiver
  • [FOR SALE/TRADE] Henri Selmer Paris "Chorus" 80J -- another discontinued lead player favorite from Henri Selmer Paris
  • [FOR SALE] Hub van Laar "Chuck Findley" Photos -- Probably the highest build-quality trumpet I've ever held in my hands in brushed silver with polished slides and inner bell (note this is NOT the same as their "Palladium" finish -- it is unique and not available on current models!)
  • [FOR SALE] Antoine Courtois "Evolution IV" ACEV4B-2-0 -- a beautiful heavy Parisian gem in silver plate with a built-in adjustable gap receiver
  • Henri Selmer Paris "Concept" TTM -- very cool discontinued dual leadpipe design and one of the very last trumpets ever made by Henri Selmer Paris in 2010
  • Callet "Sima" -- Jerome Callet's brilliant modern take on the vintage French Besson trumpet
  • [FOR SALE/TRADE] King 1049-S "Super 20 Symphony Balanced Silversonic" Photos -- originally built by the H.N. White Company in 1963 with a dual bore (.458"/.468") and solid silver bell; it was modified by the current H.N. White Co. to be balanced and is now known as the "Modified Harry James Model" for whom it was originally designed (see Chuck Par-Due's video for more about the history of these trumpets)
  • [FOR SALE/TRADE] Benge 3x (ML) Photos -- built in Los Angeles, 1975, under the watchful eye of Zig Kanstul; what a shame this company is no longer around 
  • Yamaha "Xeno II" YTR-8345IIGS -- a 2013 model with a .462" bore which I bought in remembrance of my father who passed away a few days prior to its purchase
  • Flip Oakes "Wild Thing" -- only "thing" I've found that feels similar to playing my Sev, but sounds quite a bit different; purchased new from Flip in 1997
  • Yamaha YTR-2320 -- spare; very good student horn in a surprisingly medium-large .460" bore; purchased new in 1996
  • Getzen "Eterna Severinsen Model" 900SLB (Large Bore) Photos -- 1976 model with a .464" bore that was love at first play in 1983; restored and leadpipe replaced in 2017 by Charlie Melk of Charlie's Brass Works
Previously, I have owned/used the following:
  • B&S "eXquisite" BSEXB-1-0 Photos -- an outstandingly flexible horn with great valves that will absolutely free you of the belief that small bore = high resistance/back-pressure
  • Buescher T160 "Super 400" -- A mint 1959 jazz cannon
  • King 600 "Cleveland" -- .458 bore Student horn
Flugelhorn:
