Title: Kevin Dorsey Trumpet
Post by: Spring Creek Calls on February 22, 2025, 06:42:06 PM
Picked up a Kevin Dorsey trumpet off the Grand Nationals auction for a very reasonable price. Hopefully sounds as good as it looks. ABW and myrtle wood burl.

Congrats on a fine horn! He makes a good one. Very few reasonable priced trumpets on the NWTF auction. Crazy prices. A wingbone was going for 510. May have sold higher.

He got my attention with his showing in the 2023 Nationals. Pretty talented group he was in with.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20250224/34431d44f7a5d7a1c4ff2960edd1df8e.jpg)

That is a well-crafted trumpet yelper. The turning is a lot more difficult than you can imagine. Keeping everything symmetrical and balanced is a challenge. This looks to have been done perfectly.  :z-winnersmiley:  :z-winnersmiley:  :z-winnersmiley:
