Great job! Beautiful work that shows that you care. I'm sure the owner will really appreciate it!

Man… I hope you never retire!

Always great to watch a master craftsman at work! I'd definitely watch a 3hr video of this resto - especially if it was broken up into 1/2hr parts....

extraordinario trabajo de restauración mis felicitaciones amigo...

Once had a Strad that a collegue of mine dropped so that the bell got damaged in a kind of «spirally fashion». Was almost hypnotized looking at it as I was going on stage and had to play it just minutes after…) - Long story short: got it repaired, but after that it kind of «died», soundwise. I don´t know if that is known to happen? Could it be that the metal stretched in the repair process? Or was it just in my head, because of the «trauma»…?😅

Your neighbor’s subwoofer is very strong 🎉

Where can I buy this tool 😮

Suggestion: Buy a tripod.

Снимаю шляпу перед мастером! ...невероятно!

I enjoyed that, thank you. Let's hope the lovely trumpet is properly looked after from this point on.

Very talented, down-to-earth guy. New sub. I look forward to watching more!

Yes, no noisy valves, just how I like them :)

Wow! I can't believe I watched an hour about restoring a Bach Strad 37 which is my (1985) horn. I have a local "wizard" who maintains my horns, but this is so eye opening. My only modifications are adding a brace on the 3rd valve slide to enable me to play it as an 'A' Trumpet, and 'O' rings from my local hardware store on the 3rd valve slide to reduce 'clanking' as I play the low notes. Love the video, love the care you took, 5* if I could give it to you! Bravo to You!!!!

I include a little O-ring before the first 3rd slide stop nut to eliminate noise when kicking the slide. A tiny felt washer would work, too.

this is amazing work. what is the cost of such a repair ? given the skill level and time involved in repairing the instrument, and that it is originally a student horn, how does it add up ?

im sorry but i dont think metal to metal is a great idea especially on a strad

Speaking of synthetic pads, where do you get yours? I have been looking and can't seem to find the right ones. Can you help?

Одно удовольствие смотреть как мастер делает свою работу

Damn man, you get the hero badge, my man!!!

Wow! That was amazing work you did on that trumpet. Well done. 👍

Зачёт!

Just kills me how these horns get so beat up. I mean I’ve got a 1929 King Liberty that’s been passed thru 5 family members hands with what I would call near perfect condition. Dent free, but the silver plate has worn thru where fingers have rubbed thru and the gold wash inside the bell is thin.

Great work. Fun to watch. Instructive. That horn took major abuse. Disregard bordering contempt.

Hello! I am looking for old and good condition 3 rd valve for stradivarius 37.

Amazing job and the demo at the end was really great! You made that horn sound focused and huge!

Nice channel. I mainly watch Wes Lee, the house of tone, but added yours too.

That was so relaxing to watch! Keep the videos coming please

Awesome job! So rewarding to watch the transition back to beauty. I would love see you refinish a lacquered Bach Strad and how you prepare/ tint and finish your clear. Great work !

Beautiful work. Do you take new customers/projects?

I love watching stuff like this

You know the vid gonna be good when the creator’s icon is just a letter on a monochrome bg

Zen and the art of trumpet polishing 🙂

Fascinating. You're like a chiropractor for trumpets. Impressive craftsmanship. Where did you learn how to do this? Have you ever come across a trumpet that couldn't be repaired? I had a Bach 37* in high school. Haven't played for years, but I just picked up a used Bach 43 to start practicing again.

Super impressed with your work! Are you accepting repair work? I have a trumpet I’d the dents removed from the bell and a couple of small dents in the tubing that goes into valve casing. If so, do you have a website or can you provide your contact information? Thanks!

Muy interesante a lo que realizaste para agrandar esas partes de los rotores , en qué ciudad está tu taller? Saludos desde 🇵🇪

I have the CLASSIC '65 Strad I bought when it was brand new. I remember how it smaller when I opened the case for the 1st time.

I want to know what to expect to pay for this type of repair.

SUPER!!! 👍👍👍🎺🎺🎺

I'd like to know what this work cost your customer. Looks quite expensive.

Sensacional!!!! Fantastico !!!! Você é muito bom no que faz!

how can I contact you to repair my daughter's Strad? it got stepped on the dent was removed but it still has some creasing along with some smaller dents.

Simply beautiful work!

Great job on the trumpet

❤❤❤❤❤❤

very good

What kind of idiot would abuse a once beautiful instrument like this?

Wonderful

Well done! Question: The way you stood when you played... are you a drum corps guy?

How do you assure you keep the proper bell taper on the Bach trumpets for the different Bach Bells? Do you have different bell mandrels for your repairs?
