First piece of Brazilian Rosewood for me, matching MP as well......sure makes a great sounding trumpet. I found some nice blanks that are 60 years old

Don't blame you! I can see some of that spider webbing on the end!

Yeah, that spider-webbing sure changes as the blank loses wood, glad that there was still some left. Although, this piece was chosen to be more subdued and dark, so we ended up in the ballpark.
Wow that's a looker!
Gorgeous color Greg!

Thanks, Brazilian Rosewood has a pretty hue to it. I have some blanks that are very light with some dark webbing, so it does vary.
THAT'S A BEAUTIFUL TRUMPET!
OUTSTANDING efforts, Greg
Gorgeous trumpet...
