Vintage Excellent Benge CG Claude Gordon LA Trumpet Silver Plated With Bach Case
Vintage Excellent Benge CG Claude Gordon Trumpet Silver Plated With Bach Case. Has CG stamped on brace coming out of first casing and on the 2nd valve. Horn made in earlier stages of Los Angeles Benge company era #17xxx serial range. Claude Gordon was a famous trumpet player and educator who wrote few books on the development of trumpet playing / range and endurance as well as he led his own orchestras and was a soloist performer. Horn is in overall very good shape with complete silver finish. Found 3 dings one on bell pipe close to 2nd valve and one on the bottom of bell pipe above 1st slide finger saddle facing the floor and one in the bell flare facing the floor so hard to see. Also noticed that possibly there was a bell edge dent removed on the bottom edge which left small hair line hard to see. Noticed a bit of shallow wear on the bottom of 1st and 2nd pistons in single areas not around these pistons. It seems that it is a common issue on the vintage Benges but has no effect on the movement and it is only a very slight surface wear. It appears that previous owner changed top finger buttons for more modern Benge buttons with no pears present but secure for fingers and these go more into the button and create more secure grip. Horn also features 3rd slide amado water key added which is very useful to empty the 3rd slide water during playing. Horn sounds great and is recommended for a pro player. As I said earlier silver is in very good shape and there is no corrosion on the horn and / or leadpipe. Horn comes with vintage Bach case from the same era as the horn.
