Description: Bach CL 229 G (Goldbrass) C trumpet -Serial# 287,xxx; Large bore, 229-G gold brass bell. EXCELLENT condition. Appears to have some top-notch customization such as receiver, and possibly leadpipe reversal (or custom leadpipe, amado water key, heavier bottom caps). EDIT: I was messaged by trumpeter that it is a Dick Akright Custom conversion reversed leadpipe/receiver, from Best music in Oakland. He worked with Doc Severinsen to design and build the Bel Canto trumpets. His Bach conversions were known to be were world class, along with his repairs and custom modifications. In this case, the custom stuff looks so well done, it could pass for factory stock. Cosmetics: Nothing more then a couple of light pings. The raw brass patina looks great. Mechanics: Excellent. Great valves, great compression, and all slides move. The horn is in excellent shape, and plays with sparkle, depth, and balance. Intonation is superb, in my honest opinion. I am not a C player, but this seems to be the best I can remember playing. SHIPPING: $75 ($40 ship / $35 insure) anywhere in the USA (USPS or UPS...my choice) PAYMENT: Ebay Payments, Paypal, USPS M/O. Please feel free to ask any questions or request additional pics. I'll try to have a few more up in a day or so, if the horn is still available. **PLEASE NOTE**: My asking price reflects the EXORBITANT fees that eBay now collects. Ebay also factors in sales tax into their fees, which sellers never even see a penny from. I'd really rather not ask this much, but it seems to be the only way to come out with a fair amount on this platform. With that said, this piece is for sale locally as well for a different (ie:lower) price, so feel free to contact me in regards. I reserve the right to end the listing at any time.
