Another addition, Macassar Ebony-Micarta Flat mouthpieces in #3 & #4 and a standard delrin in #4.




Beautiful call! Dropped the check in the mail yesterday for one I have been waiting on. How you like flat tipped mouthpieces?

I like them, definitely have a different tone to them.

I recently received #3&4 flat mouthpieces from Mr Billy and they play different to me they have more rasp to them for sure but at this time are harder for me to play but ive only had my first trumpet about 3 months.

There is no "best". Mr Billy's fave is Osage. His 200 yr old Osage is never a bad choice. No matter what you are told there is little difference in sound of any wood.

I agree with not being able to hear much or any difference between woods . I would buy a call that you think looks good. Congrats on your new edition Ricky.

Mouthpiece type has more effect on sound. Mr Billy's interchangeable design allows experimentation.

Just ordered me a 6.5 osage with a #4 flat micarta mouthpiece from Mr. Billy. Hoping to break it in this upcoming October on a Fall ridge running Tn. Gobbler.

I have the same trumpet, mine is 6 inch, made with fence post Osage. Absolutely love it.

If you can run a trumpet you'll like that mouthpiece.  Definitely gets more rasp.  Does Billy make a 6.5"?

Did Mr. Billy say when he got more Osage in? When I spoke with him the other week all he had was sold and he did not see where he would get much more.
