I bought one new in 1995 and added that mechanism to the first valve slide. I have never sold a musical instrument before, so pricing and determining who to trust with my horn, is a real challenge.Īny suggestions that you might offer, will be greatly appreciated.Īt some point they added a small perpendicular-mount screw for that function. I plan on selling the Trumpet in the near future, so I am attempting to gather whatever information I can find, in an effort to determine the Trumpets value on todays market.
It is one of the first hand full of Mercury trumpets that came out of the factory in April of 1941 using bachs own material.Īll the ones before used those Import valve bodies.
