Renaissance wax will remove the tarnish from the ferrules also- and slow the return of the oxidation. It's good stuff and has multiple uses. Highly recommended.

How do you guys keep the ferules so shiny?? I recently got 2 used ones and was wondering if there is a safe way to put the shine back into them.

Thanks. Does it do any harm to the wood if it happens to get on it?

I'll second Renaissance wax. Guys on here recommended it to me for my trumpets.  It's safe on just about anything. Wood, metal, etc. .
Stuff works great.  Found mine on ebay. Just make sure you use it in a well ventilated area or as my wife made me use it- outside.  Stuff has potent fumes.

All Renaissance wax will do is make your calls look great. I apply a small coat with my finger and evenly coat the wood. it dries almost instantly. Give it a few minutes and buff the excess off with a cloth , old tshirt or micro fiber towel. I will make the wood's finish pop and protects the finish for quite a while. If the call or metal dulls, just reapply. It is great stuff. A small can lasts many years.

This is the #12 of 14 Westinghouse micarta 6" trumpet with screw in buffalo horn mouthpiece.


6" cocbolo flat top trumpet. I love the way this 20 plus year old wood is darkening.

Old School, Those calls are wonderful..

Nice ones Old School!  You have a great collection of Buice callers.

Not to be morbid but my wife and I talked about her having folks to turn to should anything happen to me. Won't do any good to catalogue them if she has nowhere to sell them. If anybody is interested in being a contact send me your name and number and I'll make a list. I'm talking about buying the collection or most of it at least...... Just trying to make it easier on her is all.

Does Billy still make the micarta calls?

Mr. Billy is a very devout man. He sourced some gorgeous Olivewood from Israel. The calls are magnificent, and they came with a card that authenticated the origin of the wood. It is a magical call. I have killed a few Gobblers with it.

Absolutely stunning trumpet Mr. Nitro. My next will be in Olivewood, Ironwood, or Rosewood. So hard to choose! Thanks for showing that fine collection of Mr. Buice trumpets, he is one of a kind!

I will ask. Going to see him next week. Last time I was in the shop, we discussed Micarta. It's hard to source suitable material.. the old Westinghouse stuff is favored.

I could be wrong but I don't think so. He might do mouthpieces but I don't think he does the trumpet.
