Incredible Selmer 23A Balanced Model Trumpet! ACB Show & Tell with Trent Austin

[Link in description] This Conn 23A balanced action trumpet is a wonderful instrument. I had this horn restored by the world-class restorer Mark Metzler, including a valve rebuild. It's a horn I had to sell from my collection that's now back in the shop on consignment. Look at how crisp the bell engraving is!
There's a cosmetic blemish around the bell bead due to acid bleed. The solder wasn't cleaned up properly during construction. It's not a structural problem and it doesn't affect the sound, but given how beautiful the rest of the horn looks, we've lowered the price a bit to reflect this. Check out all the photos here on the web store: www.austincust...
This horn has a gorgeous sound that would fit into many environments, but it will really shine for players who are into the Louis Armstrong and Harry James vibe. The 23A is Selmer's medium-large bore balanced model so it's efficient and approachable for the modern player. It can also get pretty bright if you push it. There are lots of sound shapes available with this horn!
This video is a followup to my extensive Live Noodles session on this horn, check out that video here: • Come hang with me! T...

Those mouth shakes are so clean, such great horn for anyone looking to specialize in Dixieland jazz!

That horn will actually play a lot more than Dixie land jazz, it is such an amazing horn it will probably play anything your able to throw at it, And actually this guy can throw a lot and this horn is one of the very best he plays on…

After listening to a number of your videos, I may actually prefer this sound to the wonderful modern superhorns. I guess I'm just a sucker for old horns and old music. It really sounds like its era.

Vintage Selmers probably had some of the best quality lacquer, the Selmer Depose trumpets from the 1930s to 1960 from what I've seen had impeccable dark honey colored lacquer.

I’ve had “Lotus Blossom” stuck in my head all day! You sound great Trent. A vintage Selmer balanced is one of my dream horns. I was going to get the one you all had in the shop a few months back and waited too long lol
