Just received my first trumpet from Herb Hornstra a burl oak trumpet with a bone mouthpiece.

Mr Hornstra said he found this piece of burl oak in his pile and this is the first he has ever made

Beautiful workmanship and it draws air very easily.

Want be my last from him.

Looks very nice. Is it me or is the horn wider than you would normally see?

Any idea how long after actually getting in contact with him does it usually take to get a call?
